For a lady to have her car break down on a deserted road is a very unpleasant experience.
Last Friday morning, my little car decided to again test me, a week after it had its annual service.
I had parked outside a premises on the R102 but nobody was there.
When I tried to start the car, there was only a click sound, no doubt a battery problem I thought.
I considered calling a colleague but felt it was a bit out of his way, so I walked to the roadside and waved my arms.
Eventually a bakkie pulled up and I was greeted by the big, friendly smiles of Ballito Chloorkop Crane Hire guys Sydney Chiliza and Dumsan Hlombe who offered to help.
After a failed push-start attempt, their jumper cables did the trick.
These kind gentlemen also suggested where to go to get a new battery.
I want to acknowledge them for helping a lady in distress.
