    I'm a b@stard, obviously.

    Don't know what she's going to do for punishment though, I refound my virginity when we had the little-un.

    Erm ... how does that even happen :-/ The wheels not the virginity

    No idea.

    Certainly not by driving on a flat tyre.

    Nope. Not at all.

    Pretty much what happened when hooked up the air line at home. Best thing I've ever bought, that bloody compressor! I'd probably still be at the garage now using their stupid digital ones.

    the other week I pulled up at one of those digital things in Sunderland, reluctantly pulling 50 pence out of my pocket, & was happy to see the sign 'Out of order due to nozzle being stolen'

    It's grim up north!

    Aye, there's one around here that charges a whole English pound!!
    They're always crap as well, so bloody slow. I don't think they use a cylinder to store any air.
    Can't beat hooking up an air line with a cylinder full at 8 bar, takes seconds to do a tyre
    It's almost paid for itself now in trips to the garage

    I bought one of these, then can just carry it around in the car with me, not as powerful as your compressor, but a lot more portable.

    Not sure if she made Little-Sideways do it.
    Probably not, think she'd tell her where to go with the attitude she's developed lately
    Are you sure the East Europeans didn't wash it?

    Aye.
    Have you seen the size of the boot though on the ragtop? That'd probably fill it
    Would still involve Mrs Sideways getting her hands dirty though. Can't have that.

    Most likely.
    Not had a look in the daylight, but it's better than it was.

    Yes, we've had 2. Rachel always does her tyres.
