It was around six pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ray and I were sitting talking about the recent golf, ready for the next job for the day to arrive. Eventually we had the call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Catford and put petrol in her diesel Hyundai rental car in error. She was rather irritated apparently, saying "I just can't believe that I've ruined the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car I totally forgot that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe spot and, because it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we could arrive at the customer quickly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was living at. Even though we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive away calm and less stressed.
