Its changed hands since though and i think its now a Total petrol station and i'm sure its race policy will have improved :)

Ya can you imagine what would have happened if the sign had read no coloureds allowed:rolleyes:

And to think, people laughed when I bought that solar powered car. I knew, just knew, I would use it one day. Who's laughing now?

Apparently Asda had sold out, Spar had people queuing to get on the forecourt all day and have had an extra tanker delivered today to cope with demand. Mr Cameron is not making many friends is he?? :rolleyes:

Prostitutes will be putting up their prices.

As more people hire them, to go out syphoning.

Re: Tanker Driver' Strike

I question the real motives behind this prospective strike, after all the tanker drivers are more than adequately compensated for the job they do. Mclusky is just another left wing, loud mouthed, troublemaker whose sole ambition is to return us to rule by the unions.

But you need a smart one; one who knows that "blow" is a metaphor of sorts.:rolleyes:;)

Re: Tanker Driver' Strike

well even if i run out of fuel and teh pumps run dry i will still support any blockade because the higher fuel gets the more expensive gas ,electricity and food becomes

does anyone remember when chicken was a cheap meat its a far cry from been cheap these days and its mainly down to covering the rise in fuel costs of having it delivered

tony blair managed to get diesil up to £1.54 per litre and it looks liek camerons after breaking that record

Government could take less in tax from fuel to ease any rise in the price of a barrel but then where would they get the money to give away hand over fist abroad while we who pay the flipping tax make do or go without :mad:

So I guess Shanks' pony went to the knacker's yard.;)
