Aaaaaagggghhhhh........more punctures!!!!!!

I kid you not, I must have had a 3 foot thorn in my tyre tonight, well okay, maybe 1/4 of an inch, but it happened again and to make matters worse the handle of my pump decided to part company with the body of the pump as I started to blow up the replacement tube. Luckily I had my compressed gas instant inflating canister with me and with a combination of foul and abusive language and this contraption I got enough air into the ruddy thing and struggled home. Strange thing was, the pump behaved perfectly normal when I got home, spooky.........................
