Steering Lock issue on 2006 DB9

[Rps1106]

So, went out for a ride with the Mrs without any problem. On the way back stopped at Sainsbury's. On getting back in the car, put the key in the steering lock, the door mirrors opened as usual and the internal lights came on. We sat there talking for several minutes. I then went to turn the ignition on and the key wouldn't turn. Also the steering wheels was locked solid - no movement at all.

After panicking for a couple of minutes, took key out of ignition, door mirrors closed. Got out the car, locked it and then unlocked it again. Put key in ignition, mirrors opened and then it turned the key to its normal on position. I could then turn on the engine.

Any ideas?

Thank you.

Does not sound like an issue to me. Any car once unlocked, expects to be started in a certain time-frame.
