Power Steering Woes

Anyone else had this problem? Hoping its nothing too serious.

Went off to get my hair chopped this morning, as I was parking Cecil in the car park, the power steering made a groan, then from the front smoke! not much but some mist.

Thought uh oh not good, power steering is now REALLY groany and notchy, so switched the car off.

Came back to the car a hour later and its dumped the entire power steering fluid on the floor.

Suspecting the high pressure hose has finally given out.

Poor Cecil is stuck 15 miles from where I live, gonna have to tow him home later urgh
