Wrong Fuel Assist Three Ashes - Wrong Fuel in Car Three Ashes

I had a wonderful afternoon hiking on my off day and felt delighted the following day as I was en route to help a new couple away in Three Ashes. They had conked out after putting diesel in their father's Audi RS 4, and the car was about half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself as I heard to the lady telling off her man for being so silly. "Just how could you possibly manage to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this takes place quite frequently in Hampshire and that it is nothing to fret about, even so he in spite of everything had an earful by his missus. Unfortunate lad. Anyway, I drained out all of the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I waved bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would say to me if I made the same blunder... I would never ever live it down!
