Rescued Today

Katika from Napier

It may not seem much to some, but to me, it restored my faith in humanity. I stopped at the Carlyle Street Dairy today and when I went to leave, my car wouldn't start. Go figure, battery dead, come on who hasn't it happened too. The owner Palak tried with two cars to charge my battery, to no avail. He suggested, I walk down to Marshall Batteries-Williams Auto Electrical, thankfully 2 minutes down the road. I did and without hesitation they came to my aid.
My car is in my garage now plugged into a charger. Thank you boys you are my hero's. I have not been to Marshall's before, but when I need their service that's where I will be going. Carlyle Street Dairy is my local go too, Palak and Ankita are sweethearts and I will always appreciate their service and kindness.
