A Spate of Tyre Punctures Lately

Don't know why, but I seem to be getting tyre issues on my car lately. 

I had one tyre (near side front) that had a slow puncture which require pumping up every two or three weeks.  This got worse and started going down every couple of days.  I realised the tyre was getting pretty worn and probably wasn't worth repairing so new tyre fitted.  Three days later I notice the front offside has also lost pressure down to 12psi.  :doh:

Talking of tyres, I had to help out a friend who's car had a blowout on the way to work, You can see what's left of his tyre in the video.  Luckily the sides of the tyre stayed on the rim and actually protected it until he could pull over safely.
