It was before 8 pm on a Saturday and even though we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were resting going over the recent golf results, at the ready for the seventh job to come in. Eventually we had the call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol garage and filled petrol in a diesel Priestley Green lease car. She was pretty distressed it seemed, saying "I still can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that these things sadly do happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a secure spot and, since it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we were able to arrive at the lady without delay. The incorrect fuel was drained so she could get back to the motel she was lodging in. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home calm and not so concerned. Another job well done in my books!
