Now I'm not very inclined to doing the job on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I had just left the family after a tasty lunch prepared for us by the better half, and I was en route to deal with a man after he had put the wrong petrol in his Newton Hill. He was situated nearby thus it wouldn't be long before I got to him. As I pulled up at the rear of the car and got busy draining he told me "Praise God! I had my thoughts on other things and did not realise I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I brought about some problems by simply driving it?" I revealed that there probably should not be any kind of harm and also I would remove the wrong fuel quickly. As expected I drained the contaminated fuel from the car and filled up with the suitable fuel, and thus yet another happy motorist had the ability to continue their journey without the bother. He did not stop thanking me, and this makes operating on Sundays just a small bit easier in my opinion!
