CV boot clamp snapped while driving...

Driving on the highway this afternoon, about 120km/h, and I start to hear this rattling sound coming from my left front wheel well. Get off at the next exit and look underneath the car, and the large clamp on the inner CV boot has snapped off and is just hanging there. Of course, there is now grease splattered everywhere, and it was a mess to try to secure what little was left of the clamp and cut the loose end off.
I had a couple new boots put in last fall, and haven't driven the car all winter. A bit of a bummer being the first weekend with the car out!!! Will be making a trip to the mechanic with past service invoices in hand detailing the similar work done last year.
Will be a messy next few KMs with CV joint grease spraying everywhere!
