Yesterday went to get tyres on my car repaired / replaced.
Went to go out in car this morning to find that one of the replaced tyres (rear driver side) had decided to deflate.
Headed to tyre place and nearly had a berk in a merc crash into me at A19 / Tynemouth Rd roundabout when they decided they didn't have to obey the give way to the right rule.
Get to tyre place and discovered that the sealent wasn't properly applied to rim, but they sorted out free of charge.
Go pick up wor lass, do a few errands for her, then head to Saltmeadows to see if anything was worth photoing. There was but due to roadworks I couldn't get parked and all the parking bays around the S bend were full.
Ended up spending most the afternoon driving around aimlessly. Did however manage to get a photo of Arriva Tempo 1311.
Headed to Grangetown in Sunderland to get some Black Cats to find that I was too late to get decent shots as the sun had moved too far around.
Decided to head to South Shields, then as I was going around a roundabout in Hendon, a wire /cable wallgrab punctured my tyre (The Driver Side Rear again). Although the tyre didn't lose it's air, the thing stuck out so much I would have been an idiot to drive it, so it was into the sports centre car park to change my tyre (fortunatley I had sorted my spare yesterday too).
More aimless driving about, and in hindsight thinking I'm pretty bored of the local bus scene at the minute.
