It was pretty damn cold where I broke down.

I was delivering to a place just beyond where that lorry got stuck. Obviously, due to the snow, the hill, and the location of the lorry, I was unable to pass. Someone was coming down to collect the delivery so I wasn't really stuck or anything. Everything was alright then, all of a sudden, the engine on the van just cut out. I tried to get it started again but to no avail.
A recovery waggon came to winch the lorry out of the ditch. It succeeded, then the recovery waggon managed to get stuck in a similar position to the lorry. After a while, both managed to free themselves. While I was being seen to, another lorry - this time a flatbed trailer - attempted to go up the hill and managed to get stuck too. It was quite the spectacle - I wish I had of filmed all of this as it really was quite funny.
