Not The Best

Yes, that is my car half way across the Belhaven car park.

No, I hadn't ran out of fuel again.

In fact, I had just filled up the tank. Unfortunately it was unleaded and the car runs on Diesel.

To add some spice to the scenario I had just dropped Mrs Smith off at the train station and she was en-route to visit my Mum in the hospice. I was supposedly now en-route to pick up the kids from school.

You can probably imagine the feverish phone calls to the school and to the AA.

Eventually I got towed home, jumped into Mrs Smith's car and raced to pick up the kids just half an hour late. I deserve to pay every penny of the £212 I'll be charged by the AA man when he comes back to drain the tank.

What a fud.
