Figures you'd get a flat when you were dressed up and not prepared to change a tire, Paula. Congrats on your win!

Too true, it never rains but it pours. When our daughter was teaching in Thailand one of the Thai teachers said "It's not true that Thais don't make plans. We do but sometimes things change."
