She told us that she had driven away from the petrol station and was stranded along a rural road on route to see her family. I got her location punched into the TomTom and was with her within 60 minutes. I got to the location and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing it she explained, "I have been getting rather absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel because I had just got it a few days ago when my other one, which I had for over twenty years, finally broke down". I completed the job and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a pleasant Northamptonshire lady!
