It was just after seven pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and me were seated discussing the weekend's sports, waiting around for the sixth telephone call to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Hoddesdon and put petrol in her diesel brother's Skoda Superb rental car by mistake. She was rather agitated it seemed, saying "I can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to worry, and that things like this sadly often happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a protected spot and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we were able to arrive at the lady fairly quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she could go home to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Although we got very wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home contented and not so apprehensive. Another job in Hertfordshire done well in my mind!
