Yup that's about me too these days. The first flat tyre I had was on a motorway and I insisted that my two male passengers watched and supervised while I changed it. They were being honked and yelled at by other drivers because all they could see was a little lady changing a wheel with two big blokes stood by watching her. They were quite embarrassed about that but I learnt a valuable lesson.

I've used Haynes manual more than any cookery book, much more useful.

Peppers weren't something that my Mum ever cooked with so when I bought my own house and tried to be a domestic goddess I thought I would invite some friends around for a meal and picked a recipe which involved peppers. BUT I kept the insides and threw the skins away. It was only when I looked at the picture in the cookery book that I realised my mistake. Another lesson learnt!
