Rank: Forum user		Phil, Isn't it considered bad form not to remove the key from the ignition before filling up? cheers

Oh and don't forget to wait behind some lardie that takes 10 minutes to put his seatbelt on before eventually driving off and allowing you to fill up.

Rank: Guest		does he always fill up in front of you too? whats more annoying is when he also decides to re-tune his radio!!

I'm with you on this - I too finish my week on a Thursday to go off and study - Thank goodness for smart phones! :) I haven't tried forums on my phone yet - are they mobile ready mods? I know in the olden days php forums had a wap interface!

I'm lead to beleive that none have blown up but analogue phone signals were found to cause the dials in the pump to freeze so people would end up paying less and that the ban was to cover this. Probably just an urban myth.

Rank: Forum user		Don't forget to do some shopping in the now obligatory minimarket that petrol stations seem to be turning in to. Don't worry about the the people queuing to only get fuel. They won't mind waiting. :-)

Rank: Forum user		You seem to have forgotten a key point. " and your mileage sir?" options then are 1. Make it up 2. Embarrasingly walk back to car and check it again (trying to remember this time whilst the queue tut tuts) 3. Don't bother then get told off when the monthly report comes through Andy
