So needed to pop into a post office near where i was working. Only in there for ten minutes and came out to this;

Guess some competitors feel threaten or im just not liked.
Or have i upset someone on here who works near me 😂😂
-
Maybe just a random, sometimes people just do things
-
competitor for sure
-
B@rstards. Is there no cctv near where you were parked?
-
Get a dashcam with parking mode.
-
Sadly no cctv cameras.
Im going to get 2 dash cams, one for back of the van as well i think.
What makes this worse is, i have the spare tyre which is in good condition so im pleased with that. However my lug nuts are nearly rounded so my trye iron is just slipping straight off. Now have to wait to see if i can be rescued by AA man, it sounds like im a right girl not being able to change a tyre 😂😂
-
At least it was only one and not all four.
-
Window cleaning wars. Boils my blood. No other trade is it as bad
-
No pressure then?

Yep, the silver lining ;D

This is what annoys me. I had no problems when trad cleaning. But 2 years back invested in van n wfp and printed names on my work uniform. A general tidy up n more professional appearance and i reckon the morons out there think im a newbie on their patch or something stupid. Rather than realising same person who upgraded to wfp instead of trad. Or their just well jealous that i have or something.

You don't get tyred of making humorous comments do you?

They've probably been on the old speckled hen 😂 😂

Looks like you've nailed it.

He must be feeling really deflated!
-
Sometimes you just feel like people knock the air out of you 🗣
-
I can't see from the picture Nathan. Has that definitely been cut or something?
Didn't know stuff like that went on anymore. Thought it was left back in the 70's.
-
I think you could tread more carefully folks ...
-
Haha, i think i got the point! 😂😂
-
Never had any problems with other windys, thought we were more professional nowadays.
Any ideas who it was? did you see any other windys about whilst working?
id be tempted to set a trap next time for the suspect
-
Slash and dash
-
if you didn't see anyone do it how do you know it was even done by a person let alone another competitor?
you are jumping to conclusions, buy a new tyre and get back to work, crying about it on the internet is gonna do nothing

I worked in a different area this morning but needed to post some documents and this was the closest post office, all be it about 10 miles away from where i was working. Though it is in a village where i do work and a stone throw away from another village i work in. I didnt scuff my tryes on anything nor run over anything on my travels. Even if i did run over something, look where the hole is, its not directly on the tread of the tyre is it!!
But the 2 big give aways was when i saw the flat and got close to the van you could hear the air whistling out the tyre untill no more pressure to whistle out. That doesnt take very long to do and if the van was in motion it would have been even quicker and obviously noticeable when driving. Especially when the 2nd big give away point, is a nice circular piercing clear as day staring at you!!! Which my own posi screw driver fitted nicely into.
Moaning on here!! I like it.........but no it wont help but it lets off a little rant and gives a laugh with all the one liners coming through.
But thank you for your contribution

Tread carefully - he's in a strop.

Could blow a valve.

Yeah, inform The Famous Five of your plan by flashing torchlight at bedtime.
They'll catch the rotter red handed before breakfast and then head off to school.

Took my tyre in this morning to my local tyre garage, "tyre king" within 20 mins back up and running all for the cheapest price i think ive ever paid for a new tyre. Only cost £20......if it lasts for a while l, ive just found my favourite garage to replace my tyre from now on.
Last year i changed 2 tyres at another local ish tyre garage (as badly worn, which shockingly i didnt realise untill my friend pointed it out to me......ive learnt to check my tyres more often) and it cost 150 for two 😯
-
£20 for a new tyre (shock) good luck with that one especially with the weight we carry.
-
£10 of that was tyre disposal, valve, balancing and fitting.

Yep thats what im thinking. I just asked for a new tyre n handed them the wheel to change it. He came out and asked for twenty, lol i even asked if he was sure. So will see how i get on
