Yes, I am going away for 10 days this morning. Also yes, something has indeed gone badly wrong with my wheelchair bearings in last 12 hours. Also yes, my fingers are always this oil-stained, since you ask.

Far be it for me to point out a mistake but do you not mean ‘duct’ tape? Or is there something called duck tape? And do you use it to smuggle mallards? #musing
What a pain. I’m trapped at St Pancras station because of a bomb. The first time I venture out in 2 years.
Always the way. I hope your wheel chair holds together. I’m have visions from the Ha-ha!
At the airport once, security staff demanded to know why I had a full tool kit tucked in the back pocket of my chair. I had to patiently explain that chairs break and need fixing.
The incredulity at me a disabled woman fixing anything until I explained I had built the chair. Toolkit came with me1/2
Duck tape is good, and fixes pretty much everything.
I was once on a course where first aid skills were being tested and one of the other people produced a roll of duck tape and successfully argued that this was all that was needed (he was a doctor). He passed.

Absolutely ridiculous.
And of course they always go bad at the worst time!
Although, it's less of a problem now since I have no hair lol
But yeah, my bearings would make like a clicking noise. And then when I replaced them, it went away.
(have I said autocorrect is my nemesis lately?)

Good luck with your trip!
