I binned that straight away and fitted a proper spare. Because I'm a man and, as such, am able to change a fucking tyre.

Yes, particularly as I buy them part worn from cars involved in horrific accidents, but they're cheap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was fully one of these- It was a rough week. How do people with no internet look stuff up? You have to bring a scud book and do it old school. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only had a problem once with a puncture and thankfully it happened right opposite a garage; I wouldn't even try and use the 'repair' thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The inflator is handy if it's a slow, or not completely shredded and you can pump it up until you get to a garage, but you'd probably be better pishing into the tyre than trying to use that silicon stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dee Man Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 You know when people say, "Oh, it looks like you brought the weather with you, hahahahahahahaha" and you want to punch them straight on the mouth for their shite, lazy, clichéd 'patter'? Aye, well I'm beginning to think I actually have brought it to Western Australia. Just had the longest, wettest, coldest winter in decades and now January is heading for the wettest in 20 years. How the f**k am I supposed to maintain a good tan in this weather? These c***s getting sent back to war torn countries from the USA don't know how good they've got it. http://www.watoday.com.au/wa-news/what-summer-perth-set-for-wettest-january-in-almost-20-years-20170130-gu1a3h.html http://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2017-01-05/2016-perth-winter-coolest-in-decades-bom-climate-report/8164000 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerberus Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Apparently 1 in 3 Australian immigrants go back to Britain. They want some First World problems. It's a funny ol' life. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a funny ol' life. A load of them go back to UK after homesickness, then remember why they left in the first place, go back to Oz and so on. They're referred to as ping pong poms. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eednud Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Once you try chicken salt your can't go back. Sounds like a possibility for one of those slice/square, stand-up/sit down arse wipe, chipper/chippy type topics that P&Bers enjoy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Got given a courtesy car while mine is repaired and MOT'd. It's an inferior model to my own and I think someone recognised me driving it home. On the plus side I haven't driven a manual for about 5 years and I barely noticed the difference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
