I am not actually excessively excited about working Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same.

He was situated in Eastcote thus I arrived with him rapidly. As I drove up at the car and got busy draining he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I stupidly had my mind on other considerations and failed to grasp that I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I inflicted any kind of problems through starting it?" I said that there shouldn't be any kind of damage and also I would remove the contaminated fuel immediately for him. As expected I removed the wrong fuel from the car and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and yet another delighted motorist was able to continue on their journey with no bother. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this is actually what tends to make operating on Sundays in Northamptonshire just a tiny bit less painful for me!
