Another one of those days when 'our Melvyn' didn't feel like going too far along the TF1. We intended to go bowling but we ended up waiting for the grua to turn up and take us all home!Luckily, we managed to get to the slip road, after a water pipe blew out. Following Spanish rules, 'im indoors put his reflective jacket on and placed the emergency triangles behind the car. I was ordered to go over the barrier, not an easy task as they look lower than they are!
Thank goodness for mobile phones. Brian rang for the grua whilst I informed the bowling alley of our misfortune. Five minutes later Officer Dibble turned up to check us out. Having explained that we were ok and just waiting for a tow truck, he left us to it. Nice of him to stop by though.
We only had to wait for around fifteen minutes which was well impressive for Tenerife and home again.
According to Doreen, there were lots of whinges in the bowling alley........but you can't have everything!
