It truly was what we call an unsociable hour to be awake. It was about sunrise and hardly anyone was about. It had been rather quiet until now, and Brian and I were relaxing browsing some old magazines. That was an unusual restful hour. It was indeed so calm that when my mobile rang I leaped! The voice said: "I've just concluded my night shift and incredibly put petrol in the Cragg Hill in error". I asked him to inform us just where the vehicle was and we headed out, getting to him not as much as half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the car and he said thanks a lot for getting there so quickly. While we were returning home we noticed two girls on the side of the street who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. As a result we pulled over and helped them change it, to their elation.
