Silly little me

Last week I made a very embarrassing mistake.

The tread was getting rather low on my types, so I decided to change it myself. I managed to get the wheel off easily enough, put the fresh one on and screwed it back in place and then set off to work.

However, I only made it 5-10 metres before I realised my mistake – I hadn’t actually screwed the wheel nut on and the wheel was now at risk of flying off the car altogether!

Oh no wait, this wasn’t me – this was a guy whose sole job it is to screw the wheel nut back on. Unlucky :D.

Still, at least we got to see Patrick Stewart.
