I know it’s not clever, but I’ve done it myself a few times to get me home when I’ve had a puncture. Normally though you jack up the side that’s flat and put a wooden wedge between the axle and the front casting on the good side; at least then the stub axle is well clear of the ground, and you can even leave the deflated tyre and rim on to save a bit of work!
Let’s hope they don’t have another puncture!
