"The BLIP that BLEW"...

...Yes, it did...and it was a nasty state of affairs too...it was like a canon blast..I'd say..

...The loudest bang you could imagine whilst all was quiet in the neighbourhood - it was the noise from the Wheelbarrow Tyre bursting..ofcourse I didn't know what had happened - I thought the air conditioner had messed up once again - no, I thought not again, this is the 3rd time in 3 years since new - but then I went to the front door - I imagined the quiet neighbours with curtains parting, or someone racing down their driveways - but no - not a soul was around - they'd all gone out, after all it was Sunday afternoon, and there was just John with the old Wheel-barrow and the brand new 12v Air Compressor..and John with a very disappointed look on his face...

..."She's blown I'd say", he said... well that was a good conclusion, it's a while since that's happened so I'd forgotten what it sounded like...and so, well, this is the old Wheelbarrow Tyre in a sad and sorry state...

..."Well she needed a new Tyre anyway" (tyre plus tube, that is) .. and now - off to the Hardware Store for another -can't do without the old Wheelbarrow..

...Tomorrow till be another day for John..
