That would've been a much better retort if you'd actually thought about what you were typing.Originally posted by louie View PostIll just have to do with my enriched, happy, fulfilled life I have now.

You should have least started the retort with 'Listen you fat ginger haired jew hating chippy tosser' . This would have set the precedence of the retort early and would have bought that 1/10 upto nearer a 5 or 6.

I had a flat yesterday, again no spare.
AA came out took me to a garage got the tyre and took me back to the car to fit it.
recovery of the car could of cost you, and the gel stuff does indeed ruin your wheel (although i didn't even try to use it as i had no idea how) and then to replace the gel is around £50 i think.Comment

My thought also. I wouldn't like to be pegging down the motorway and the plug let go. I'd much rather take it to a garage and have it fixed as its only a couple of quid. Since tyres are that tiny bit of rubber that sticks your car to the road its not worth the risk farting about with them.Originally posted by zeitghost
You did have it repaired properly after you got home, I trust?
Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
I preferred version 1!Comment

Only a couple of quid as long as the puncture is in the middle of the tyre. If it's too close to the shoulder then it's new tyre timeOriginally posted by BoredBloke View PostMy thought also.
