Hi, this might be a real long shot and probably a dead end but i'm looking for someone who i met about 12 years ago ish, he drove a real old transit, roundy front(i don't know my transits, yet, sorry) anyway it was in a services down near exeter way i was heading for the M5, when stuck in traffic one of my front brakes seized up and managed to get to the service area. No brake down cover, on the phone to my hubby who was 500 miles away while we tryied to figure out what to do. This guy pulls in in his transit and offered to help. can't remember his name but one of his arms was knackered, from a bike accident I believe. He spent the next 5 hours fixing the seized caliper and getting me mobile, i brought him drinks etc and handed him tools. He had recently bought a bit of land nearby and i was telling him how cheap places were in Scotland(where i was heading to) Anyway slipped him some money for his troubles and i headed home. would love to catch up and find out how he is doing now. Like i said a bit of a long shot but ya never know
