... unless it's a kit that you've owned for ~9+ years and never needed
to use, until one day when you discover you've got a puncture, and
you've got to be somewhere in a hurry, so you could really do without
the hassle, then you discover that the plugs have perished and the tyre
won't hold air, so you ride with the flat over to your friendly local
mechanic who takes the tyre off, at which point you discover that the
hole you were repairing wasn't actually the one that was letting the air
out in the first place. Pah.
