This was what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was about 3 in the morning and hardly anyone was around. It had been fairly uneventful so far, and me and Brian were sitting around perusing a few old papers. This was an uncommon restful hour. Actually it was in fact that calm that when the telephone rang I leaped with surprise! The person on the phone stated: "I've just completed my evening shift and foolishly filled petrol in my diesel West Langdon". I told him to tell us where the vehicle was located and we set off, getting to him only 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car. He thanked us profusely for arriving so fast. While we were returning home we noticed two young ladies at the edge of the road who appeared to have a flat tyre. Obviously we stopped to help them change it, to their elation.
