MAY I thank a young man called Paul from Blackburn, who instals stair lifts, who stopped to help me when I'd run out of petrol on the Bridlington bypass at night on Sunday, March 11, on my way to work.

He filled my tank from his petrol can and would take no reward.

Thank you, Paul, you're a gentleman.

RUTH MILNER, Primrose Valley, Filey.
