Unplanned Airflow

Postby Cloggy » Tue, 05 May 2009 12:51 +0000

My wife collected me last sunday from the airport. She thought to be nice and collect me in my baby.
As I came out of the airport I called her to notify her of my arrival and she informed she stood between the Balbriggan & Swords exists on the M1 with a puncture. Anyhoo, took a taxi to meet her and there she was.
She told me she was a bit late and came over the motorway doing (censored)when she got the feeling she might have a puncture.
:? Here the image I saw first:

:shock: And after taking the wheel off the turn-side:

Now I'm not an expert, but I don;t recall my tyres having air vents. :shock:
Ya gotta love them. I'm so proud. :lol:

Yep, she told me (censored) and knowing her that's what she would be doing.
Very lucky indeed...
