So there is hope for me after all!! And no...I did not pull it out! Whew!! It better stay inflated...I do not want to pay a tow truck to take my car less than two miles!! |

I'm only jokin, it can be a bit daunting really, the jacks are always a bit rubbish they supply, and the wheel nuts are always done up way to tight!!!! then the wheel has 'welded' to the hub!!! then when you finally get it off, you find the spare is flat too!!!!! |

That's the thing...I have no idea where to place the jack and no tools to get the wheel nuts off...last time someone helped me with another car...he snapped the darn things clean off! And besides...I have a nice white shirt on today and I dont want get dirty....KIDDING! |

Just place the jack in the bin, and walk away from it!!! You really gotta let me know how you get on with the tyre Krissy!! i got my fingers crossed it'll be ok!! |

Jason, Ray, and Paul, I sympathize with you about the night shift thing. Many years ago I worked an 11:pm to 7:am shift and it was without doubt the worse year of my life sleep wise. I NEVER got accustomed to sleeping during the day and was always tired and cranky. LOL! Krissy, that was quite an eventful morning, hope your not looking to top it! LOL! Seriously though, I am no good when it comes to car repairs, even just changing a tire. Frankly, I don't want to do it! That's why I have AAA. LOL! |
