Tongue jack collapsed, TT nose crashed down - ouch!

After 3 weeks of wonderful holidays, had to pack up yesterday and drive home. Looking at the skies, dark grey rolling in, better hit the road soon. Usual stuff, put things away, disconnect service...

Yes tricky with TTs which can roll forward if conditions are right when the tongue jack comes off the ball or whatever. You can be crushed between the truck and the TT. Ouch! Chock those tires!

Meanwhile BobsYourUncle seems to be having run of bad luck--with the truck and now the trailer. Might have been his fault for moving back East to Alberta. :(

Best stay on this forum, so we can bail you out from whatever happens next!
