Everywhere near me has ran out.
Nearest garage with fuel is 30miles away, my Fuel light has been on since the weekend with the needle now at the bottom.
Game over for me, All i've got left is a drum of Avgas in the garage at home.

Havent read through the whole thread but if it hasnt been mentioned it is because of the drivers going on strike iirc.

fucking hell you drive a vtr for fuck sake not a ferrari, diesel vapour lmfao
Yates is right you tried to come across as a clever sod calling the asians then try to backtrack. They are trying to make a living no doubt on minimum wage, its not like they need to speak perfect queens english to work in a petrol station  Im sure if you had asked him not to lean on your car he would have kindly obliged, it was probably just an automatic thing as most people lean a hand on their car when filling it up from what I've seen when at the petrol station.
As for making small talk, its called being polite, its also probably the best way for them to get a better grasp of the English language by talking to the natives, but you are clearly too ignorant to figure that one out.

Ah the irony...
Carl-h, you're clearly an ignorant and illiterate divvy. Now take your divvy face and fuck off please, you're making yourself look like an absolute doyle.
I don't mean from the thread either...
EDIT: Just realised this is about fuel and strikes and what not... That will be why I was waiting for ages to fill up yesterday! Thought it seemed a bit too busy.
