Reliable? Yes :)
Just called the RAC:
"is that a car or a motorbike?"
"manual or automatic?"
"petrol or diesel?"
I tried my best not to laugh
Just shows how reliable our cars really are
lovely day for a spot of sunbathing on the side of the road 
Seized brake calliper for those that wish to know

sorry to hear it. Happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I first noticed the caliper had seized when stopped at traffic lights on a hill and the car wasn't rolling backwards, drove a few hundred metres and car was stopping on its own. Managed to limp to the local garage but had to pay for a new caliper 
Only pain in the arse is that I have only just painted the calipers as well! good job I haven't thrown the paint away

My one I had replaces a few weeks ago was silver like the ones I painted
On another note some guys just stopped, I thought they were going to see if I needed help but no.
"would you like to buy a brand new memory foam mattress?"
I of course said no and asked them if it was warm to which they replied...
"roasting"
Did they mean the weather?

What a pain! I ask becasue i've noticed that one of mine is slightly warmer than the others get. I'm surprised, as it's a daily driver, so never thought it would have the time to sieze.
It's in for it's MOT tomorrow, so hopefully they'll spot it if it is. The last time i took it in because of a squeaking at low speeds, the mechanic said it wasn't siezed, but was a little tighter than the other side.
How weird re: Memory foam mattress - I guess these salespersons all have targets to hit.
