Hi everyone,

Took the family to London for the week-end for sight seeing and museum visits etc.

Went to Sainsburys early Monday with the family to get the weekly shopping and spotted the offside rear tyre was flat on walking back to the Gal. "Don't worry it'll only take take 10 mins to change" I assured the wife. Could be worse, the puncture could have happen zooming up the M11 at 70mph!

Some bu**er had really overtighten all the nuts and I had to stand and bounce all my 83Kg on the spanner to loosen them, left the locking nut for last and hoped it was on looser. No it wasn't. Gently increased foot pressure on spanner until it gave way, the spanner adapter had sheared away the inside of the head!!!! Phoned Brittania Rescue and were taken home within 40 min, family and shopping dropped off and then taken to Ford dealer.
