So, let me tell you a story from this week…..
On Tuesday after our walk me and the five dogs were getting into the car when somebody pulled up beside me to ask me for directions.
The dogs were obviously curious and turned to see who it was I was talking to, this resulted in me dropping the lead and the rest of the things that was in my hand.
You you might of guessed what happens next… I can’t find my car key 😳 My car is one of those keyless cars that needs the fob to start the engine but you don’t have to physically insert a key.
After searching the car and on the ground, I still couldn’t find it. So I tried to start the engine and it came up ‘no key detected’. $hit!!
Can you guess where the key was? .. yep that’s right, it had fallen down the drain 🤦🏻♀️ but because it was full of water, I couldn’t see anything.
*insert panic!
I honestly didn’t know what to do as I wasn’t sure the AA could help get the engine started without this key. Anyways, a Lady and Man were coming out of their house and saw me on all fours searching and looking in the drain with the torch on my phone. Her wonderful husband went inside and grabbed his fishing reel and some magnets and made me a little thing to put into the drain to see if I could get them.
Eventually we managed to get them out. If I hadn’t of had my trolley token thing on then, the magnet wouldn’t have worked.
Had it not been for this gentleman and his wife I literally would have been stuck with five dogs and no way of getting them or me home.
So today me and Mia have dropped off a little thank you present for them both and I will be forever grateful to 2 strangers who stopped to help me 💗
