What a quality night of sleep! It was 7:30 on a bright Bank Holiday Monday and we were on the way to assist an older woman after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel Cortworth. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was broken down in a rural road on route to see her family. I punched her location straight into the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour or so. I turned up at the car and removed the contaminated fuel out of the car. Whilst I was working she told me, "Now I'm becoming fairly absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel because I'd just purchased it a couple of days ago when my other one, which I'd owned for in excess of twenty years, inevitably stopped working". I finished the job and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. What a lovely lady!
