When I ran a disco(theque - dont want anyone to think it was the other disco!) my electrics died on my tranny(van). Smoke came from under the bonnet. Stopped, jumped out, round the front, opened bonnet. Positive from the battery had shorted and welded itself to the bodywork and was still glowing from what was left in the battery. Into DJ's emergency toolbox and chomped through the offending wire with sidecutters.
It was a dark road. Middle of the night. Pre-mobile phone era.
I twisted six lengths of heavy duty speaker wire together and replaced the posi lead. Rolled down the hill and the b*gger started second time I lifted the clutch.
Nowadays the EMU would chuck a wobbly, the alarm system would lock everything up.........'moan moan'.........'old git rambles'..........'it was all fields round here'.........
