Morning folks
Half way to work today I heard a nasty bang going round a roundabount which was followed by the sound of something dragging and my car not developing as much power as normal. Seeing as the exhaust would be hot and I didn't have a lot on me I decided that there was nothing I could really do about it and to just limp to work, inevitably getting in late, and sort it out there where I could make use of tools in the factory if required.

Pulled in to work only to realise that my exhaust was fine; my rear right tyre, on the other hand, was fucked.

I drove the best part of 10miles with a buggered rear tyre! Didn't even cross my mind that it could've been a puncture as the car seemed to be handling fine probably due to the speed I was driving.

Still, spare is on and that's all sorted. Last night I was trying to decide whether to just get new fronts at the weekend or replace all 4. At least I don't have to think too hard about that any longer!
