Wrong Fuel in Car Lydd-on-Sea - Petrol in Diesel Car Lydd-on-Sea

This was exactly what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was about 2am and almost noone was about. It had become pretty quiet up to now, and Ray and I were sitting about looking through a number of old articles. It was an uncommon quiet moment. Actually it was in fact that quiet that the instant the phone ultimately rang it made me start! The voice on the other end said: "I've only just finished my night shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in the Lydd-on-Sea". I instructed him to let us know exactly where the vehicle was and we left, arriving under half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the car and he said many thanks for arriving so rapidly. As we were heading back to the depot we found two young women at the side of the road who appeared to have a flat. As a result we got out and helped them change it, much to their delight.
