Dear Diann
I do not know you but on 2 May I had the privilege to eat the fruit of your upbringing and it was sweet.
I hit a rock that most probably rolled from the excavation heap at Hill Street. Some 10m further the front tyre exclaimed, ‘I had enough’ and I summarily stopped in the intersection of York Avenue and Hill Street at 7pm at night with no cellphone on me.
Even though this senior citizen was standing next to my vehicle with an open door trying to get over the shock and orientate myself as to what I should do, cars were rushing past.
Whilst unpacking the boot to get to the spare wheel your two boys walked across the road.
“We saw you had a flat tyre and we have a mom and a sister. Can we help you?”
What a question.
Julio and Jorge Cardosa used their own equipment and within 10 minutes the Marie Biscuit wheels took me home.
Mom Diann, well done. We can surely build a strong nation with youngsters like these.
