What a great night of sleep! 7:30 on a sunny Sunday and we were on the way to assist an older lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel Brompton. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up along a backwater road along the way to visit her grandchildren. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and got there within an hour. I arrived at the car and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing the work she said to me, "I have been getting somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel since I'd only acquired it several days ago because my former one, which I had had for in excess of twenty five years, eventually broke down". I completed the job and she presented me a peppermint and said thank you. What a precious woman!
