I the last 3 weeks I have had approximately 7 issues with tubes, pumps and horrid little bits of glass that you need a microscope to see.
I have walked for litterally hours. I have spent hours changing and re changing and re changing.
This morning I was about to set out for a ride when I descovered I had a flat. I took it out, turned the tyre inside out, held it under the spot light. I pumped up the tube, patched the hole. Pumped it up again, checked for more holes. Put the whole lot back together again and .... A minute in to the ride the bike was feeling sluggish. Went home, checked the tyre pressure - 40 psi, down from 120 litrally minutes before. Now an hour later? Totally flat.
I don't know what to do. I am now scared of going out on my bike incase I get another puncture and I'm in the middle of nowhere.
I want to scream and cry and stamp my feet but I know it wont solve the problem. I just screamed in the shower, it hasn't helped and I'm now concerned the neighbours are going to call the police!Can anyone help me? Please?

Paste that link into your browser and check it out. There are some options to help puncture proof (or at least help) your tires. I wouldn't, personally, mess with gluing anything myself. I'd work with a bike shop. I'm just too afraid of screwing something up.
