It was close to 5 pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were resting commenting on the recent footy results, waiting for the 6th fuel drain of the day to arrive. Before long we got a call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Priesthorpe lease car by mistake. She was pretty distressed apparently, stating "I can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, and also that these things regrettably do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a protected spot and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes from us, we were able to reach her without delay. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to return to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off calm and not so anxious. A fuel drain done well in my mind!
