Bet he didn't use the word 'Kids', but something a lot stronger ;-)

Were you parked in an awkward place? Some people seem to think its pay-back to let down the tyres. Goodness knows why - the vehicle shouldn't be moved when the tyres are flat. Kind'a defeats the object

Last night at approx 8.55 our neighbour called to say I had two flat tyres on the rear wheels of my car. I immediately rang AA who said they would be out first in the morning.

The AA arrived this morning at 7.55. What a very nice man!

It appears that someone decided to let out the air from my tyres, and replace the cap with a tiny stone. Fortunately, no damage was done, just the inconvenience. I don't know who it was or why it was done, but it says more about the person than it does about me. The very nice AA man said it was probably drunken kids doing it for a laugh. Please excuse me whilst I compose myself, I may injure myself laughing.
