It was after 8 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were resting discussing the rugby, waiting around for the sixth call to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the BP petrol garage and filled petrol in her diesel Chidswell rental car by mistake. She was somewhat affected apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, and that these things regrettably happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a protected spot and, seeing as it was just a short distance away from where we were, we were able to get to the customer swiftly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to go home to the hotel she was staying at. Although we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off satisfied and less apprehensive. A misfuel correction well done in my mind!
