Brakes

While driving home last night i started to feel a vibration coming through the whole car,i immediately pulled in to a layby to find one of my rear wheels smoking with that unmistakable smell of burning ferodo.

On further investigation it would appear that one side of the handbrake has bound on .......any suggestions as to why this would happen and how i would rectify it, would be most grateful for advice.

regards

welcome to the club - I never did find out why mine did it, as Bodsy said, new shoes (and did new discs and pads as well as they weren't far off needing a change).
