It was about 10 pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring! Mark and I were sitting going over the weekend's tennis, waiting for the sixth fuel drain that day to arrive. Eventually we got the call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Norbiton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Skoda lease car in error. The poor lady was somewhat troubled it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car I totally forgot I was running a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to worry, and that these things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a protected position and, since it was only a few miles off from where we were, we were able to find the customer almost instantly.

What a quality night of sleep! It was 7:30 am on a bright Wednesday and I was off to help an older lady after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mazda in Norbiton. I had been told she drove away from the petrol station and was stranded along a backwater road along the way to visit her godchildren. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and was on-scene within 60 minutes. I arrived at the destination and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she said, "Now I'm getting fairly absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel seeing that I'd only purchased it a short while ago because my other car, which I had owned for more than 25 years, eventually died". I completed the job and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a delightful Merton woman!
