Wrong Fuel in Car Shipley - Petrol in Diesel Car Shipley

I had a fantastic evening cycling during the weekend and was feeling satisfied the following day as I set out to assist a new family who were away. They had conked out after putting diesel into their Shipley, and were about an hour away. I emerged at their position and laughed while I listened to the gal chastising her partner for turning out to be so confused. "Just how could you actually manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to clarify that this comes to pass constantly and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, but he yet still had an ear bashing. Poor lad. Anyhow, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed so long and wondered what her indoors would ask me if ever I made the very same blunder... I'd personally never live it down!
