It was close to five pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a dry evening, it had not ceased raining! James and I were seated there talking over the weekend's sports, waiting around for the next fuel drain of the day to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Millhead and put petrol in her diesel canary yellow BMW Z4 rental by mistake. She was quite irritated it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to worry, and also that these things regrettably do happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a safe area and, because it was only a few minutes from the office, we could arrive at her almost instantly. The bad fuel was removed so she could return to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Even though we got very drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away contented and a lot less stressed.
