It was before 7 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were seated there discussing the recent footy results, waiting for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. Inevitably we had the call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station and put petrol in her diesel Thorne lease car in error. She was pretty agitated it seemed, saying "I still cannot believe I have messed up the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to worry, plus that these things regrettably do happen. She had managed to get the car to a protected space and, since it was only a few minutes off from us, we were able to find the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she could get back to the motel she was living at. Although we got pretty wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive away contented and a lot less concerned. One more job well done in my mind!
