Driving home from a pleasant morning shopping, I managed to collect this:-
I could hear a terrible noise and couldn't immediately pull over, so people were stopping and looking to see where all the noise was coming from. when I managed to get around a corner I found this large drill bit (?) in my tyre and the air starting to come out. Drivers side rear tyre.
Nic was with me and wanted a chance to change the tyre all by herself , so I said ' of course you can' LOL
2 nice elderly men came to our aid and took over. Nic was abit disapointed- she will get over it when she has to change her own in the middle of nowhere one day.. A nice act , considering I was in the middle of the shopping centre and no one else gave us a 2nd glance.
Later when I had to pick her up from Uni, the car was again making a racket and I found a piece of hard plastic stuck to the front tyre this time from chewy gum. I was able to pull it off with no damage done..thank goodness.
I shall have to be more careful around here with all the rubbish I am collecting from the middle of the roads!

Mandy..you have no idea what you are missing..lol..honestly..the dirt..stress and frustration..but then the total satisfaction of knowing ..I did that..then driving home wondering if the wheel will fall off..hehehehe.
Hi 'L, have missed you, glad you got the tyre changed okay, plenty of willing helpers at least. I find it is always the elderly gents who are quick to give assistance, whether it is car trouble, or someone giving you a hard time, they step up, I love them, I have tremendous time for these lovely people.
I do hope the tyre wasn't too new otherwise it is a terrible waste of money, wonder who is missing a drill bit?
