Lucky

That was lucky!

My front offside tyre had a puncture - the culprit being a deeply embedded nail. So why was it lucky...?

It was lucky because...

I spotted the critter before I set off...

I wasn't caught out on a motorway or quiet side road...

I had my car rescue paperwork in the car with me...

I had my mobile fully charged to make the call...

I was parked in a disabled bay (had mum with me who is now classed as disabled, so had her disabled car permit and newly acquired 2nd hand wheelchair in boot), so the rescue guy had sufficient space to work on the car...

I was parked right by the small M &S at Lymington, so we could sit inside the store out of the pouring rain (and spectacular thunderstorm)...

We could also use the loo in the store.

See, I told you it was lucky, eh?
