Just had a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Tuesday and we were en route to assist an older sweetheart who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel navy blue Volvo740 in Hornby. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and broken down along a rural road on route to pay a visit to her family. I got the location plugged straight into the TomTom and arrived in less than an hour. I got to the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing it she explained, "I have been getting quite forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel seeing that I'd only just purchased it a week back after my old one, which I'd had for about twenty years, inevitably died". I completed the job and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my work. What a precious North Yorkshire lady!

It truly was what we call the night shift. It was roughly 2:30 in the morning and hardly anyone was around. It had been rather uneventful so far, and Ray and I were relaxing reading a few old papers. That was a rare quiet moment in North Yorkshire. It was indeed that peaceful that the moment the telephone rang I jumped! The customer on the opposite end said: "I've just concluded my evening shift and foolishly filled petrol in the diesel aunt's Honda CR-V in error". We got him to let us know exactly where the car was situated and we hit the road, reaching him in Hornby less than 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the vehicle and he thanked us for coming so promptly. While we were coming back to the office we saw two young ladies at the side of the street who looked like they had a puncture. As a result we pulled up and helped them change it, much to their delight.
