He was able to get the car out but it wasn't without a lot of micky taking from fairground staff.

A love note, written by Jimi Hendrix when he was performing in Boston in 1967 is to be sold at auction today.
Image source, Hansons AuctioneersThe note, which he wrote to Anthea Connell is expected to sell for up to £3,000 when it goes under the hammer in Etwall, Derbyshire.
Aged 19, Anthea was at Boston Gliderdrome watching her boyfriend's band set up on stage when Hendrix, who was also due to perform, jumped off the stage and came to talk to her.
Quote MessageI'd love to say it was a deep and meaningful conversation - I must have mumbled something. I was totally awestruck.
Anthea Connell
The star then asked his bandmates for something to write on and returned with a message written on a paper guitar strings packet.
Anthea says she wants to sell the note because she's afraid she'd lose it, and because it would help her visit her cousin in New Zealand.

It's been 10 years since Fiona Pilkington killed herself and her 18-year-old disabled daughter, Francecca Hardwick.
The 38-year-old single mother wrote a suicide note to her mum before dousing the back seat of her car with petrol and setting it alight.
For years the family had been bullied and tormented by groups of youths at their home in Barwell.
They complained 33 times to Leicestershire Police but were only visited by an officer eight times. An inquest into their deaths found the police failed to act, contributing to Fiona's decision to kill herself and her child.
Leicestershire Police has told the BBC huge progress in tackling anti-social behaviour has been made in the 10 years since Fiona and Frankie died.
Quote MessageThe death of Fiona Pilkington and her daughter Francecca in 2007 was a terrible tragedy and our sympathies remain with her family and friends 10 years on. Our approach to hate crime and anti-social behaviour has changed beyond all recognition in the last decade. We take all such reports seriously and in partnership with many agencies do all we can to prevent such crimes happening in the first place."
