This was certainly an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was about sunrise and noone was stirring. It had become pretty uneventful so far, and me and Ryan were loafing around looking at a couple of old newspapers. This was a rare peaceful hour. It was that tranquil that when my mobile eventually rang I jumped! The motorist on the opposite end said: "I've just finished my overnight shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in a Great Buckland in error". We got him to let us know exactly where he was and we left, ending up under half an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle and he thanked us profusely for arriving so quickly. While we were heading back to base we found two girls at the edge of the highway who seemed to have a flat. As a result we pulled over to change it, much to their elation.
