That's less than good. I'm sure they'll give you a go of a trackpump. The weirdest thing I've ever asked for in a bike shop was a chain, a lend of a chaintool and a go of some swarfega once I bought the chaintool back!

Just offered SimonCC a bit of concern and sympathy in the disability thread.
I hope he takes it in the spirit in which it was meant...:angry:

Yeah, Milo@ join the club! Two visits from the P*nct*r* Fairy on Saturday, although....I haven't as yet removed the screw embedded my front tyre and it hasn't deflated yet!!!!???!!!!

Doctor, I am glad my profiteroles haven't gone to waste!!

I once had an almighty row with the owner of a well known LBS in Deptford, who sold me a presta inner tube when I had asked for a shrader and when I went to replace the tube outside his shop and found the mistake he refused to exchange it as I had taken the tube out of the box.

When I asked polietly if I might borrow an adapter for my pump to blow up my tyre he said I had to buy one because I'd only get it dirty, I asked if I might borrow one from his work shop, he said no, would he pump up my tyre on his compressor, no, the mechanics were at lunch. Had he any intention of helping at all, no.

At this point I hurled my pump into the spares display behind his counter and stormed out in utter disgust and never returned.
