Default How bad is bad?

I know where my jack and spare wheel are. I also know how to change a
wheel - my dear old Dad saw to that. My problem is I just don't have the
strength to undo the wheel nuts the tyer fitters did up with a machine.


The last time my car had a puncture I couldn't undo the wheel nuts and
had to call the AA. The man had some gadget that allowed greater
leverage but it stripped the corners on one of the nuts. He called
another person who arrived and produced a gadget to clamp on the nut
and then with a huge amount of effort he unscrewed the actual threaded
blot in the wheel. It took about two hours and then cost nearly £60 to
get the wheel repaired.

I've since sold my car.
