You must be joking, bunch of thieves they are, £151 for a tire, i bet a garage would have charged half that.BUT, he got to the rear tire and circled a bulge in the sidewall. What? They said it was caused by hitting a curb. Hmm, if the front tire was OK after bending a rim, how does a REAR tire get messed up? I kept my mouth shut and played stupid. They ended up charging me 151 Pounds for it. Bummer, but better than buying a wheel!
I wonder how big this critter really was!
Made a new friend, and hope to somehow do something to pay Richard back for all that he did for me. They plan on coming over next year for a road trip, maybe I can take some time off work and meet up for a bit?
Randy, thanks for putting up with this thread that was NOT anywhere near "on your own". Hopefully I was able to show my take on what things were like in England and taking a road trip there with a little hunting thrown in for good measure. When Richard offered this and I was chosen I wanted to share as much as I could of my experience for others to enjoy. I hope I did so.
Got back out on the road and headed for our last stop outside of London. We had a room booked in Wembley close to the stadium. It took a while to find it and I named Wembley "Little Bangladesh". As usual, the joint had no air conditioning even though it was in the city where it gets warm. Our TV didn't work. My wife wasn't happy. Something about a "cheap bastard" was overheard! At least we had breakfast set for the morning. There was a promise of fixing the TV the next day or they would move us for the next nights stay.
We hoped onto the tube right downstairs for our trip into London. We got off next to the River Thames near the London Eye. We thought about riding it but the line was pretty long.
Walking down the street we came to Westminster Abbey. Beautiful place, but like lots of places, no pictures allowed inside! Tombs inside contained kings and queens along with famous people from the past.
