It was just after five pm on a Monday and although we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were seated there commenting on the recent tennis rankings, waiting around for the next job to arrive. Finally we received the call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Texaco filling station in The Hyde and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel father's Kia Rio rental car. The poor thing was very distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I can not believe I have ruined the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that such things unfortunately do happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a secure space and, because it was no more than a few miles away from us, we could arrive at the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home calm and not so concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Worcestershire done well in my books!

They pulled over after filling petrol into their grass green Toyota Land Cruiser, and they were around half an hour away. I turned up at their position and laughed while I listened to the gal telling her husband off for turning out to be so silly. "How could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this goes on on a regular basis in Worcestershire and that it's really nothing at all to be anxious about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had an ear bashing by his missus. Unlucky chap. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed goodbye and thought about what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I made the exact same mistake... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!

This was certainly an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was about 2 in the morning and nobody was stirring. It was fairly dead so far, and John and I were loafing reading through several old newspapers. This was a rare restful hour in Worcestershire. It was indeed so calm that the moment the telephone finally rang I jumped with surprise! The person told me: "I just ended my overnight shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in my metallic yellow Mercedes CL-Class by mistake". We asked him to inform us exactly where the vehicle was located and we left, reaching him in The Hyde under 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the engine and he thanked us profusely for coming so promptly. While we were returning home we noticed two young women at the side of the highway who seemed to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled up to help them change it, to their delight.
