Here’s what happened to me today:
It happened about a mile away from my house. At first I wasn’t sure what had happened but then the noise/shaking got worse and so did the steering. I wasn’t sure if it was going to make it all the way home, but I did (just).
My housemate and I tried to fix it, but the bolts were too tight so I had to call out the breakdown people (for the second time in [Edit:] two three weeks).
I do however now need to buy a replacement tyre since my spare is rusty and apparently its not a good idea to drive a mile on a flat tyre (destroying my old one). The question is: Do I buy just one tyre, or a whole set of four (at about £25 each)? Any thoughts?

I think you have to get all four done at the same time. At least the pair together. By the way, glad to see you’re back to blogging again.
Had to get two tyres changed. Only cost £40 as I got some ‘part worn’ ones. The other two were still reasonably new apparently. Haven’t seen you blogging for a while?
