Dont worry, it's always a relaxed drive……..with occasional jostling for positions (you need to change positions, otherwise you end up with photos of the same car in front/behind you  :wink: )  We'll have tools with us and a tow rope as per norm  :wink:

I've seen CorkyGolf's boot, he has a handy recovery rope and a few Mechano spanners  :mrgreen:, mind you it is a cabby  :roll:  . I always have a few spanners rolling around in the boot, you never know when things will go pop!  8O

Yeah but Murphy's law says that the tool you need, will be at home in the shed. And that if you have all the tools, a part will break. So, I just carry my AA card these days. I do have a spare wheel and wheelbrace, sometimes carry a booster pack (due to historical issues…), but that's it.

Funny Really that at weston park someone needed a booster pack (Denzil) and a 10mm spanner (Dom) and you two were to the rescue
