We are supposed to be driving to Yorkshire on holiday today. I recently had a puncture and used the spare. My H went to the garage this morning to pick up a spare where they told him that the tyres all needed replacing and the brake pads are shot. I was very surprised as I have not noticed any problems with the brakes. Anyway the upshot is I am significantly poorer (not really the issue as the money needs to be spent) but more annoyingly it is going to take them a couple more hours to do the work. We are going to be leaving on a massively long journey mid afternoon on a bank holiday Friday it's going to be hell [:'(].
