  1. Whilst in portugal last week our car broke down in an isolated area. Our car hand book and our Sat Nav told us to call 112 for breakdowns the policeman who answered laughed at us and told us he could not help & put the phone down! A policeman who stopped when passing had 112 on his car and could not believe it when we told him.
