Well Dan,
Finally got her to bed at 08.30 pm this evening.
The adventure was dramatic though...After a lovely stress free flight to Aberdeen Rob collected me from the airport & we had a bacon sandwich before finalising the paper work.
Once that was done I followed Rob back south with a little detour taking in Braemar and the stunning Scottish hills.
As we neared the skiing areas my tyre pressure warning light came on. We pulled into the cafe car park where i found i had a rear offside side wall puncture!
Luckily I pay into a recovery company and about an hour later the M was loaded onto the truck and driven to Perth.
The recovery company tried to locate a spare Michelin for me, but none could be located. In fact they were unable to locate ANY tyres that would fit the car.
IN the end 2 Hankooks were located from miles away.
I ended up paying £94 for a room at the holiday Inn as the tyres would not arrive until 11.00 am Thursday morning.
So I ended up billy no mates with a curry & eleventeen pints at the pub next door to the holiday inn
I rang the recovery company at 11 o'clock & was told the tyre would not now arrive until after 2.00 pm (2;45 they arrived)
So after all the drama I finally left Perth at! 3.30 pm with my pocket some £540 lighter........ She's worth it though lads
