It was before 7 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't given up on raining!

Inevitably we received the call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in South Benfleet and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel dark blue Volvo V50 hire car in error. She was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle!
