It was close to 9 pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and I were seated talking over the tennis results, waiting around for the next call to come in. In due time we had the phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Llandaff North and filled petrol in her diesel burgundy red Land Rover Defender 90 hire car by mistake. She was very affected it seemed, crying "I can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to worry, and that such things often happen.
