Thank you guys.
I am not sure when it happened other than since yesterday morning. It could have been the underground car park yesterday; today at Box; overnight (I decided that keeping the car out of the garage one night a week should be okay).
Re CCTV, I am considering having mocked up to film out of the four main windows when parked. Something like this would work:

The old cnut in the white BM that nearly killed me This morning by pulling out directly in front of me.
got 2 smiles out of it though ...
One, Stayed upright after a several metre skid and Two ... I would have hit him at the end of the skid had I not stuck my foot out, he now has a dented panel to remind him to use his Farquin' Eyes ! |

realising i managed to destroy my front tyre on the rat run last sunday, it was on its way out anyway, but thats not the point  i hold MTR personally responsible  Must be loving my left hand bends more than the right, cos the tread has completely disappeared, whereas the right isn't so bad!

think when I saw you arrive and park at Boxhill you drove into the space which would mean it was very unlikely to have been hit in the rear as no spaces opposite it.... really sorry the car has been damaged again

To be fair thats the first puncture I've had in about 2 years, but its always when you've just had a new tyre fitted rather than one your about to replace

Going to look at a bike which was described as 'yeah man its a minta init' and not having alarms bells ring by his turn of frase and the location of the bike, South Norwood.
Turned up to find a heap of Shit that would have cost as much to make it road worthy as he was asking for it. Fork seals blown, oil down both legs onto brake calipers and disks. Been up the road on its right side so exhaust and panels, corroded to shit, all brakes binding, chain and sprokets shot, both tyres bald, running on 3 cylinders, (how manys it got then mate!!!  ) and thats without a closer inspection.
So be warned.
If you go down to the hood today your in for a big surprise!!

Aye... sods law and all that - few years back I had a new tyre fitted, the next day I had a screw in it, had it repaired, then the following day another, had it repaired, the day after one straight through the side wall unrepairable... arse

AOL is the crappiest ISP ever... Anyone who uses AOL should be rounded up and shot...
There is no excuse for companies these days to use AOL for their email - especially when their bag of shite email system eats anything I send out to customers using AOL

Avon Storms - 1mm puncture replacement guarantee - you know it makes sense
Got a four inch nail in one of my back tyres on the Zx12 within 10 miles of the tyre being fitted.

First 1mm I'm afraid, Yeah I know about this deal although you can bet any money you like I'd get a punture after 1.00001mm of wear its sods law

Found a crack on the lower r/h subframe rail on the Triumph. Checked the other......yep cracked too. Both about 2/3 around the tube. Still...... it's only £400 for a new one
