Does anyone know of a petrol station or similar that will pump up car tyres?. Query is on behalf a person with restricted mobility and unable to bend down to pump tyres - also has arthritis in hands so fitting air pump sometimes a problem.


The only place I know is in Kent ( staff will fill your tank, do tyres and water) - just like the old days!

The problem is not the area but finding someone who will accompany her to the garage. When the tyre place was outside Turners in Barry Road, they used to do her tyres, The tyre place near Grove Vale Library does help but with all the lorries etc going up and down they only have a limit space to work in. Last time she paid ?3 for about 5 minutes work - she volunteered this and felt it reasonable. I only mentioned the Kent one as I was surprised to find an old fashioned petrol station (it was near Goudhurst/Sissinghurst)

    • Don't forget to put water out for the birds during this very hot spell. Just remembered to do it myself.
    • Just visited Carlton following the recommendations above and agree with everything that's already been said. Great non-nonsense service. Another patient phoned while I was there and I heard Carlton say "If you're in pain, don't worry, I'll fit you in," which says it all.
    • Thanks i went to the chiropodist for my toenails! Not my gait. It was a remark he made on seeing my insoles, suggesting tennis ball w revised etc. .  He doesn’t do insoles and at that time i thought mine were ok. A podiatrist has sophisticated equipment for gait analysis etc. it’s not always just about your feet. I have flat feet but am also doing some wierd way of placing my feet. They are also v expensive ! re Guys self referral, I’m not in pain or immobile so think I’d wait a long time for an appointment!  However before my insoles I did have foot pain and also fell over my own clown feet quite regularly!   chiropractor is something different again.    I think I’m after a second opinion on my insoles.  Carlton Jefferson is the chiropodist rear of 60 Peckham Rye  
    • Hey Huggers, please can you share the fabulous chiropodist's details?  Huggers, I think podiatrists are the same as chiropodists, pretty much. Also, why aren't you sticking with the chiropractor, out of interest, if they seem to think the problem is more posture-related, rather than solely (sorry) down to the feet?
