Default HELP!!!!!!!!!

I pulled into work this mornin and fucking engine started steaming! Think water hose has burst

Radiator looks good and pretty sure it the top hose coming from the radiator!!

When I turned the engine off thats when it really poured on the ground

Any tips to fix it so I can get home 20 miles

The hose has probably failed on the jubilee clip in which case cut the hose slightly shorter and refit it. When you get home use this is a nice excuse to get some nice silicone hoses
