This was what is called the night shift. It was about 3:30am and hardly anyone was stirring. It was pretty dead thus far, and Brian and I were relaxing perusing a number of old newspapers. This was a rare quiet hour in Essex. Actually it was indeed so tranquil that the moment the telephone ultimately rang it made me jump! The voice on the opposite end told me: "I have only just finished my overnight shift and incredibly put petrol in the super Volkswagen Tiguan". I instructed him to let us know exactly where the vehicle was and we headed out, reaching him in Balstonia less than an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the car.
