Default Re: Geez! I hate that!

Pulled into my driveway this morning, after getting out of the car I hear a "hissing" sound. Take a look at my right rear tyre and there is a big wood screw hanging out of it.

So then had to move the car, put the pathetic excuse for a spare wheel on (FG with space saver - note to self: Get a standard wheel from wreckers) and drive to tyre shop. First shop quotes $49, second shop quotes $35 - more realistic so they get the job.

Wheel is back on the car now and all is well.

At the end of the day it's a minor thing, however it was a PITA that I didn't have time for today. And, $35 is nearly a carton of beer!
