Default b****% HEll!!!!

Went to my Shell garage to fill up as i usually do as the warning light was glowing yellow on the dash board looked up at the pmps sign above the v power pump and noticed the £1.09 sign no alarm bells rang....
The pump went click I looked up £57 pounds 42 pence a new record!!!!
Looks like they are trying very hard to drive us all onto an already overcrowded and overpriced public transport system (south western Nice clean guard on every train... 8 out of 10 still overcrowded in the mornings south eastern carriges stink of pi** no guards and over crowded
What is going on!!!!!!!!

Not a problem, my car costs £27 to fill to the brim and I get about 230 miles out of a tank.

Ok so I look like a n0b driving it but it gets me to work and I can get the nice car out at the weekend.

38 quid to brim mine and the trip estimates 470 miles remaining If I take it steady I could push that to 550+ easily
