Bad luck in 3's.... F***ing TELL ME ABOUT IT!!!

[Stang]

They say it's a myth that bad luck comes in three's but I beg to differ now.

On wednesday I left for a day shopping in Glasgow (there was my first mistake lol) Local garage had ran out of V-power so I opted for Tesco's own. Stang gets to Glasgow and we just hit the M80 when we run out of fuel... Gauge stuck on 1/4 tank with that bloody air lock!!! After an hour waiting for the AA we are on out merry way.

Today after spending a night in a travel lodge we head into Perth for yet more retail therapy. I get into a carpark and after scraping my poor exhausts up their ramp find a space and park up........... Get out of the car to find someone had dinged there bloody door against mine leaving a pretty bash!!!!

Things could not get any worse................................. could they........................










Travelling on the A9 home................... disaster struck. Side wall collapses on the tyre on the stang giving me a nice blowout............










Save to say I feel bloody lucky this never happened when I was overtaking!!

So now begs the question........... what tyres should I put on now as I am going to replace both rear ones for now.

Planning on never leaving the house again!!

I was planning KH this evening but due to the smallness of Inverness there are no tyres in stock anywhere in my size. I have opted for Pirelli's again but won't get them until this afternoon as they are coming via van. Will try to get to KH sometime soon again. I will be the one wrapped in cotton wool
