Dude, you need the AA/RAC in your life... I hate paying it, but I've been in the position where I've needed it in the past more than once a very long way from home...
Cant really help you with your issue though mate, really its the kind of thing that you cant really suggest anything without actually seeing it...
When you jack the car up though, are you able to turn the wheel though (Steering turn)? and what happens when you turn the steering wheel? do both wheels follow in both directions? Either way, sounds like a job for a garage, because even if somethings gone, then You'd probably need to get it all adjusted anyways...
