Use for a plastic bottle.

Post by Mike Sales »

The other day I had a look at my badly worn tyre and foolishly assessed it as good for another ride.
Ten miles from home I heard "chk, chk, chk, BANG."
I had a couple of spare tubes but the hole in the tyre was too bad.
Nowhere on our roads is more than a few paces from a plastic bottle. The one I chose was UV degraded enough to tear to size, but strong enough to get me home.
It's the same the whole world over
It's the poor what gets the blame
It's the rich what gets the pleasure
Isn't it a blooming shame?

Nice one, it's a good job that some thoughtful person threw it away then.
