10.00 Set off for a wedding that starts at 7pm in Lancashire.
12.40 Strange speed wobbles in the rear tire.
12.42 On the side of the road with a flat, shredded tyre.
12.50 Call RAC.
13.20 RAC turn up, comment on suspension looking bad and recommend two new tires. Put space saver on, as our car doesn't have the tools.
14.00 Get to a tyre place in Loughborough.
15.30 Pick up 'fixed' car with 'balanced and aligned' wheels.
16.00 Notice strange vibrating in the back of the car, call tyre place and they guess it might be the spare tyre not screwed in correctly.
16.30 Bugger about with spare tyre.
17.30 Call RAC from a Service area and book a room for our late arrival at wedding.
19.30 Decide on getting towed back to London, when all options have been exhausted. And the car is unsafe to drive, due to buggered suspension bushes.*
21.40 Tow truck arrives.
01.40 Finally get home, despite the police closing the road near our apartment.
* 19.32 Kev's phone gets broken as we leave the RAC vehicle. Icing meet cake.

My iPhone screen looks a lot like that, but this is good for three reasons:
1. It isn't actually mine;
2. It still works completely fine;
3. It actually makes the iPhone 36% less uncool.
Commiserations on a horrid evening.
