Default Where have the Shell garages gone?

Went to get some V power from my local Shell station in Bungay, and when I got there it had become a Total station!! Apparantly all Rainbow stores with petrol stations have done a deal with Total and Shell are no longer there!!

Its now a 20 mile round trip to my nearest Shell in Diss - either that or 30 miles round trip to Tesco in Beccles!!

If I forget to top up when I'm passing a Shell station, its a 16 mile round trip = £4 to fill up !
Trick is (for me) to top up as soon as its below half full - if you are passing a Shell station
