Crate-ful thanks for fire help

I was on my own and upon seeing smoke and fire coming from the bonnet, I went into meltdown, not knowing what to do.

As it was parked by my house, I went back in where my mum was looking after my two young daughters, to get buckets of water.

Two men in a works vehicle stopped and assisted me.

While one got access to the vehicle to move it away from the cars it was parked between, the other was running to and from my home with buckets of water.

They told me to stand away and proceeded to deal with the situation.

I called the fire service who were extremely prompt arriving. They put the fire out and made the situation safe.

The two men who helped me had to go and although I thanked them I never got their names or their company.

I would like to thank them and perhaps buy them a crate of lager each.

If it wasn’t for them, I don’t know how I would have got my car away from the other vehicles in time and the whole lot would have gone up.

It has restored my faith in human kindness and I am extremely grateful to them both.

If you are these men or know of these men, please get in touch.
