Some years ago I got a puncture just a few streets away from where I live in Walthamstow. Pulled over, jacked up the car and f****d if I could get the alloy wheel off.
I was wrestling with it like an idiot when a random guy waking by said "move over a second there, mate" and kicked the top of the tyre quite hard, at which point the wheel fell off nicely on the kerb.
