Woke up this morning, car was covered in ice and it was raining. Spent a while with heaters on, engine on, de icer, scrapping etc etc
5 mins later i went to pull away and my tyre was flat 
Normally this wouldnt piss me off, however 2 weeks ago i went and had the trye fixed at Kwik Fit. However i didnt get a receipt or anything so i cant really go back to them and say you didnt do you job mofo's.
So i'm now going to have to drive round till i get paid on my spare 
And to top the day off work told me i'm not getting paid till monday  however was meant to get paid today.
But yeah my rant, anyone have any bright ideas what to do to Kwik fit ?

just take it back there and they may well remember you and be fine. Did you pay via card or cash? As can sometimes use a card statement as proof of purchase and they can check up what they did on their system.

Paid in cash. I doubt they'd remember, i could tell the guy the second i see him, and i've checked the wheel.
First thing i thought, and even stranger i pumped it up before i left and its fine now  I've looked over it a few times and i cant see anything.
Does anyone know how they actually mend a puncture, because all they guy did there was spray water onto it for about 5 minutes trying to find the hole, looked like he couldnt, walked off and came and told me to wait 5 minutes for it to dry, i was done in about 10 minutes ?

its really hard to fit a tyre wrong, only thing is if they didnt clean up the surface of the wheel before refitting. Dont rule out a puncture, these things happen unfortunately.
