Day 10 Oops!

No way back

We left London knowing we could not go back. It’s impossible to reverse with a trailer. So we had to make sure that from London to Bulgaria we only drove forwards. Hence the reason for not leaving the motorway and straying into towns where we could get stuck.

After the Belgium incident we couldn’t even unhitch the trailer because the small support wheel that keeps it upright was broken. As a result the trailer is stuck to the campervan and we can only go forward till we reach our destiny.

Knowing all this we still tried to back track over 5 metres. But manoeuvring a 9 metre slug with limited visibility through the side view mirrors is a skill that we weren’t taught at school. We managed to crash the corner of the trailer into a motorway barrier.

There’s no way we can drive without an indicator and a back light through Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria. It would be death by bribe.
