I ran out of diesel this morning, so had to get some on the way to work today. I pulled up in Shell Victory at the far left hand pump queue, only to watch the lady come out with the “Sorry out of use” sign and stuck it on the diesel pump. So, I reversed and went into the next queue. A few minutes later, she came out again, and put another our of use sign on the pump in front of me. By this time there was a queue behind me and I think I started annoying a few people as I reversed and pulled into the next queue. A 4×4 behind me also wanted Diesel by the looks of things as he noticed that the two lanes I’d just been down had no diesel. Anyway, eventually I got to a pump with diesel and filled up, noticing how stupidly expensive it was. £1.17 per litre!! Apparently it’s up much higher than that some other places. As Jake said to me today, it’s about time we organised car-sharing!
