As punctures go.....



The inside of the tyre was shredded where the allen key was moving with every revolution of the wheel. Went from 36psi to 0psi in about 20 seconds Mad

And a gratuitous Takla shot for no good reason



Accidentally drove around with the exhaust bung in for 55 miles after changing the wheel at the roadside Rolling Eyes Still in when I got home Shocked Must be a quality item Wink I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Well 4lan, at least it was an 4llen key!

Tyre totalled. The inside of the casing was absolutely wrecked and the tyre was getting close to replacement anyway. Still a pain in the backside I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

bad luck Al ! it never ceases to amaze me how things like that which you would think have a nutural tendancy to lie flat, end up stuck in tyres at the most improbable angles Shocked you weren't in 'that' car park again were you ? Confused and theeeeennn......???

Nah, on the A31 near the House with the REALLY YELLOW Hummer H3. Perhaps he was lying in wait? I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
