I remember contacting a shop and asking if they had an expensive video camera in stock, it was for work not me. Yes they said so I went to buy it. When I got there they couldn't find it. So looks like a camera costing about £1500 had gone walkabout. They lost a sale too.<br /><br />Glad we don't have to change our tyres. We just moan when we get some snow and ice! Luckily nothing like as much as you do.<br /><br />Glad your leaves disappeared and saved you a nasty job.Winifredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12415302188575538163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-54149187958301350372009-11-01T12:50:51.314-05:002009-11-01T12:50:51.314-05:00Wind, snow, sleet or hail... we are ready.

I totally agree with this post. We've had the same issue when it came to purchasing from that famous store. Always in the computer...never can find!! We seldom purchase anything from them now. <br /><br />As to winter tires we definitely need them. We had ours put on Wed. We plan on buying rims over the next few months (one at a time) so we have them for both sets of tires too.

Too many accidents and trafic tie-ups were being caused by people who tried to go halfway with four season tires or worse, just kept their summer tires on all year!!! That just doesn't work up here, even in an average winter.Karinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07462017384530247677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-18717913721619227372009-11-01T09:59:06.650-05:002009-11-01T09:59:06.650-05:00Yes thank you, I had a lovely extra hour in bed!
