Not quite sure what you are on about. Have you ever heard of punctuation? |

I think the jist of it is that there is only 2 petrol stations in Newbury working at the moment. I had trouble getting fuel on Friday as everyone seems to have closed. I agree about BP as well, it's a terrible garage, always run out of fuel, and their pumps quite often fail as well. Friendly staff though.

If you don't have a car then it is not a 'crisis'

Yeah I noticed that Petrol and Diesel are the same price now. I wish I still had a diesel... used to have a diesel golf and that did about 50 MPG. Now I have the exact same car except a petrol and I'm lucky to get 25  Tescos is also doing their fuel promotion thing again... spend £50 on your shopping and get 5p per litre off of fuel. |
