This really was what we call the night shift. It was around 2:30am and almost noone was around. It had been quite dead so far, and me and Ryan were loafing reading through some old magazines.

The motorist said: "I've just completed my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in the Walkley in error". We got him to let us know just where he was located and we left, reaching him under an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle.
