After the robbery on Monday we were feeling really distraught and helpless. We popped in to a hotel down the road from where we had been staying, Abalone House.

Despite the kitchen being closed, Lee (the general manager) organized breakfast and coffee for us. We were looked after by a Gale, who made sure we were okay.

When further disaster struck, and our friend rolled her car on the way to pick us up, the people at Abalone House came to our rescue again. Lee lent us her car without hesitation to go and pick our friend up. And one of the staff coincidentally stopped to make sure the friend was alright.

And again, we ended up back at Abalone House where they got us tea and soup. They also made a fire for us and looked after us until our second recovery vehicle arrived. And they didn’t even let us pay for any of this.

So the Friday Shoutout goes to Abalone House and the wonderful people there. Thank you for looking after us at our time of need!
