Sadly, after searching for four years, he realised that he had written her surname down incorrectly – and had been looking for the wrong surname. 

But when he went back to the drawing board and started looking for a Christine Tallady, he got the shock of his life.

Talking to an employee about his mistake, it was here that he found out that Christine was very nearby.
