My trial of a 4mm wall thickness inner tube was going quite well with 10+ trouble free rides - till it met a 5" long woodscrew - straight through the bottom and the top. With 12 wheels to protect mousses are not really an option even if my trial of them had gone well, but it didn't. Now have all the wheels protected with Bike Seal, not had a puncture yet that's resulted in deflation - but changed a tyre recently and found the tube was punctured and it had done it's job!

But back on topic it was a really good ride! Spot on in just about every way apart from the puncture!
