Soldato
In other news the Mrs drove to the in laws yesterday. She thought the steering felt a bit funny when she hit the first speedbump about 100 metres after leaving the house but put it down to the car being laden with presents. Strangely enough it wasn't the 10 or so kilos of presents, it was the rear offside tyre being flat due to a nail.
She then drove 11 miles to the inlaws which included 8 miles along the M5 and a winding country lane! I'd just arrived 5 mins earlier in my own car and when she told me I expected the tyre to be shredded, it was remarkably intact but very hot. Obviously it's beyond repair. Put the space-saving wheelbarrow tyre on for the journey home and will replace it tomorrow.
