oh dear, could be some big damage to the injector pump because petrol does not have as much lubricant as diesel

It would have been cheap had you not driven it, they would have just emtied the tank and filled it up with diesel. You may have to flush the fuel lines now, it's not as catastrophic as the other way round but it's still not good.

Is there not a diesel sticker on the fuel flap, I know mine says unleaded.

Oh dear!

That is a good idea with the nozzel being a diffrent shape of size. Shape would be better if you think about it.
