:rotfl::rotfl:
I would not dream of driving a car without knowing the basics and I wouldn't let my kids do either. Have been stuck too often without a mobile signal and a flat tyre. I have taught my son how to change a tyre, check oil/water/anti-freeze..... as I was taught by my Dad. Not personal at all but the AA have better things to do than come out to minor things than people can easily do for themselves.
I was left for 6 hours at services with 3 little uns years ago when I had a genuine breakdown. 6 out of the available mechanics in the area were changing wheels and dealing with people who had no oil in their enginesI got home 9 hours later
Needless to say I'm not with the AA anymore but they are for emergencies not for general maintenance0 -
