Lovely AA man!

On my way home today from shopping I got a puncture and had to pull over on the hard shoulder of the motorway, within minutes (without phoning) an AA van turned up and offered to help by changing the tyre, at that point I didn't care who did it,and couldn't think which roadside service we were with! Eventually I found my AA card and showed him, he had already changed the tyre by then, so my Mum gave him £5 for being so nice, he then flashed me out safely onto the motorway and followed me up to my junction for home! Great bloke, great service, thanks AA.

    I have to agree. After stupidly draining the battery by leaving the lights on, I had to call the AA. Expecting an hour wait, I got a text from them saying the man would be there at 1315. Only 15 Mins! He was, got me started and checked a few things. Pretty good really.
    NO to pasty tax We won!!!! Just shows that people power works! Don't be apathetic to your cause!
