I dont understand fully

I think that on the way back from  crowborough I must have skidded off the road, giving the car a knock that jambed some of the lock mechanisms.  Hence when home I found myself rather locked in.  Hence the struggle to get out, and to keep the contents safe. Etc, etc.

Actually once I understood, recently, that the door locks could reset quite easily in fact, the only difficulty left is the boot lock.
