sticking back wheel

Help..this morning the boss went off to work and as she rolled forward the left rear wheel dragged on the gravel drive for a good 4 feet before coming unstuck..i know that the rear drums are original and have done 37K but i wonder whether it could mean something more serious than a failing caliper that had just frozen overnight...any advice would be greatly appreciated

many thanks

I seem to remember the handbrake cables also start to lock up after a few years

Thanks skynet...sounds like a job for my local indie

It's usually just down to weathering. Try a dollop of grease along cables and hinges

They did it from new, especially if it is a bit cold or damp overnight. Did it go out at all on Sunday?
I never leave the handbrake on overnight, particularly if it's parked on a loose surface.

Hi Davec

The weather around here on Sunday morn was atrocious, flooded roads and all manner of **** up the lanes, it has never happened before so will consider your suggestion

many thanks
