In my defence, back in the late 70s I was trapped by snow in Honiton and had to spend the night in a Roman Catholic seminary (where one couple couldn't understand why there weren't any double beds available). The next morning I managed to get to the M5 at Exeter, having wrapped my jump leads around the tyres. Reckers' former colleagues were not impressed but allowed me to continue to the exit at Taunton. I managed to get to within a mile of my home in those days, when a 12ft snowdrift put an end to my travels. It was also the end of the jump leads...
