Brian the expert AA man - thank you.

Brian got to me around 5.40pm. He identified the water leak, which I assumed would need a garage. Brian then worked to locate the leak, remove the failed part and then installed the new part. It was a privilege to see an expert at work. By 6.50 I was on my way home, very happy that Brian was able to fix it roadside.
