Just had a quality night's sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Sunday and we were off to assist an elder woman who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel sky blue Land Rover Range Rover in Overthorpe. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was broken down on a rural road en route to pay a visit to her family. I got the location plugged into the Satnav and got there within an hour or so. I turned up at the location and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was working she said to me, "I have been getting fairly forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car using diesel because I had just bought it a few days ago when my old car, which I'd used for more than thirty years, eventually stopped working". I got the job done and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a lovely Northamptonshire lady!
