I had a fantastic day fishing on my holiday and felt delighted with myself the next working day as I set off to aid a young couple who were on holiday. They'd pulled over after adding diesel into their Denholme Clough, and were close to an hour away. I arrived at their location and smiled to myself as I heard to the gal berating her man for being so silly. "How could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this kind of thing occurs regularly and that it is nothing at all to stress about, however he yet still got an earful. Unfortunate boy. Anyway, I extracted the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some correct fuel. Watching as they drove away I mouthed hasta la vista and considered what my missus would do to me if I did the very same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!

I turned up at the vehicle and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "I am becoming rather forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel as I'd only just bought it a couple of days back after my old one, which I had had for more than twenty years, finally gave up the ghost". I finished the job and she gave me a Murray mint and said thank you. Such a pleasant lady!
