She told us that she had driven away from the filling station and pulled up on a country road on the way to visit her family. I popped her location into the TomTom and got there within an hour. I turned up at the stricken lady and removed the contaminated fuel in the car car. While I was doing it she told me, "I am becoming somewhat forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel as I had only purchased it a couple of days ago right after my previous car, which I had used for over thirty years, inevitably died on me". I got the job completed and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. What a delightful woman!
