Dear Editor,

I should like to thank the two gentlemen at Colin’s Tyres, on the Haigh Estate, for their help last week when my car developed a very loud metallic noise, as if the exhaust was scraping along the road.

On the ramp, they quickly found and removed a tiny stone chip trapped in the brake disc, checked my tyre pressures and refused any payment for their time and trouble.
