The Good Samaritan

We were heading through the Cromwell Gorge on Sunday morning in order to catch up on family. It was a miserable day and the steady drizzle wasn't helping. We had just passed Champagne Creek when we passed a car on the other side of the road with a flat tyre. We could see that a very elderly gentleman was out trying to change it. So we turned around and Stephen got out to help. Just as well to as we think he had been there for some time and obviously no one else had stopped on this miserable day to ask if he was OK. He had the spare and the tools out but he couldn't find the jack. He had had to get the manual out to find out where it was stashed and then he was still having difficulty getting it out.

It didn't take long for Stephen to get the jack out from under the passenger seat, get the the damaged tyre off and the space-saver spare on.

It is nice to be able to help and it isn't hard to be kind.
