Helen was rapt and loved the attention Billy Ocean shared with his fans. Even a flat tyre on the way home couldn’t dampen their spirits. In fact it was another example of wonderful human spirit. The four women were stopped on a dark stretch of road, by roadworks, in the freezing cold at 12.30am. Mrs Cardno says she was about to call AA when a passing motorist turned back and came to their rescue. The male driver turned his vehicle around to light their car and changed the tyre for them while his wife and daughter waited. Mrs Cardno says it was a fantastic gesture. ‘‘Chivalry is not dead,’’ she says. The woman were eternally grateful, but then realised they did not even get their rescuer’s name. ‘‘All we know is the family is from Te Awamutu and had been to Rotorua to watch 250609SP03 the All Black test with relatives.
