Cancellation reasons

I realised that...I use it all the time

C'est la vie

The more expensive it becomes the harder it gets! It was easy when Esso Plus was 37p/gallon - the dials turned very slowly. I managed £30.01 in a garage this week with £30 limit - the lady behind the till looked very disapproving at me, like I’d broken the rules.

C’est la guerre! 😀

As it happens today I topped up and managed to hit £30 spot on. All ready now for our next move or two.

Filling up for my Land Rover for the most recent expedition I was surprised the pump did not cut out at £100 !

All the attention seems to be on gas, but oil prices are getting scary too! Heating oil has virtually doubled in recent weeks, diesel can’t be far behind. At least we won’t need to worry about shortages of things we can’t afford anyway. 🥴

I still have the petrol coupons from when we had the Suez "crisis", and when  Lord Stokes?  was poo, pood for saying petrol would In time be  £1 a gallon

 Metrication fixed that by shifting to a unit less than a quarter of a gallon to pull the wool over they eyes of the public.  

Brent Crude is now north of $80 a barrel, so that will trickle through to the pumps in the not too distant future. As for the "metrication stunt", I suspect there aren't enough of us left to gasp at the current price of £6.10s.0d . I remember spending £1 a week filling up my old Ford Consul.

That wouldn't have been the turquoise one we saw this afternoon near St Ives would it, CY?

A pale yellow, known as the "Flying Custard". Almost certainly in the great car park in the sky since it was 60% Isopon and burnt oil like Red Adair.
