This was what is called an unsociable hour to be up. It was about dawn and nobody was stirring. It had become pretty dead until now, and me and Ryan were sitting perusing some old articles. That was an unusual quiet hour. It was indeed so relaxing that when the telephone eventually rang it made me jump! The motorist on the phone told me: "I've only just concluded my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in the Halton in error". I instructed him to let us know where exactly he was located and we headed out, arriving only an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the car. He said thanks a lot for coming so quickly. As we were coming back to base we spotted two ladies at the edge of the highway who appeared to have a puncture. Accordingly we pulled up to help them change it, to their delight.
