Punctured!

It was an early morning surprise, to see the back wheel punctured. What was lucky for us, was that there were no car parked next to our ride, hence making it easy to spot the deflated wheel. Cant imagine if hb din spot the punctured wheel. Our plan to go pick my parents to collect the new lorry was aborted and had to get my bro to send them to collect instead.

Hb wasted no time to start operating on the wheel. When he removed the spare tyre from our boot, we were like "WTH!". The spare tyre probably is a 13"... hahaha. Wow, my man is GOOD!! kekeke, seeing him remove the wheels just made me go "waaahhhhh, so coooool!!!!" hehehe. All in all, it took him abt less than 10 mins to settle the changing. By then, he was sweating profusely, and fingers were all blackish. We examined the wheel and saw 3 nails, almost like a straight line, poked into the tyre. Dammnit!!!!



Decided to drive to Yang's place to change the tyre. When we sat in the car, hb noticed a piece of paper on the windscreen. It was a piece of used coupon, with the reverse written to get us to look out for the punctured wheel. I love tis neighbourhood!!!! Thanks to whoever you are, neighbour!!

At Yang's place, we waited for a while and in no time, all was settled. We had our 15" back!!! And the mechanic showed us the 4 nails on the tyre. Yea!! Its FOUR and not THREE!!! How on earth did we get soooo lucky?? Proceeded back to office to pack up for noon's roadshow, and of cos to say "hi" to our new lorry!!
