Went to clean lubricate and adjust the handbrake and lo the most vital bolt holding one of the cable ends in place has sheared off so i now have no handbrake at all on one side. Oh how i laughed! (/Sarcasm)

Fixed it! It's still as effective as waving a haddock but the brakes never was much cop, all thats left to replace now are the drums and the dot4. If it's no better then it can do one.
