AMIBU to think my husband might have helped with puncture?

[abraid]

I drove to pick up our son and it became apparent that my husband's car had a puncture so I stopped to change the tyre. But I wasn't strong enough to turn the screws myself holding the punctured tyre onto the wheel. The children were getting hungry (it was lunchtime) so I rang my husband and asked if he'd come and help--we were about 18 minutes away from home. He asked if I couldn't find 'someone else' in the shop carpark. Grudgingly he agreed to come but he didn't appear. I think he was taking his time putting away the lawnmower, etc (he thought it might rain and they're electric). Eventually a kind man did help me shift the screws and I changed the tyre and put on the spare and drove it to ATS to have the damaged tyre replaced. So yes, I managed, but AIBU to have asked my husband to help?

I call the RAC...tis why I pay them!!

So pregnant women or elderly women shouldn't drive because they wouldn't be able to undo their nuts and bolts???

By pregnant I mean people like me who weren't supposed to put themselves under physical strain for various reasons. I probably could have done it at earlier points in my pregnancy, but at the end--no way.

YANBU, I would be mad. But I have remembered something amusing that might make you feel that your dh is less useless.
When I was five months pregnant, dh got a puncture. He said something about getting the garage to fix it, and I said it would be better to drive to the garage on the spare. He said "What?"
He had got to age 27 WITHOUT REALISING THAT CARS HAVE SPARE TYRES.
He is not ever the most practical of men so I then changed the tyre (in the rain).

Except the unscrewing the nuts bit.

Ha ha ha! thingamjig!!
