Wrong Fuel Assist Swinmore Common - Wrong Fuel in Car Swinmore Common

I appreciated a wonderful evening golfing during the weekend and felt satisfied with myself the following morning as I set out to assist a new family who were on holiday in Swinmore Common. They'd broken down after putting petrol into their beautiful Audi Cabriolet, and were around half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and smiled while I heard to the gal telling her hubby off for being so silly. "Precisely how could you actually manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this takes place everyday in Herefordshire and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, nonetheless he all the same got an earful by his wife. Poor guy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While they drove down the road I shouted bon voyage and considered what my missus would do to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd personally never live it down!
