Re: Mistaken automotive beliefs
There are always big queues for fuel at the local tescos while the local jet garage round the corner is empty. All that time wasted to save 20p or whatever. It's beyond a joke.

Re: Mistaken automotive beliefs
Is 20p worth half an hour of you life though. As it happens I have no cash atm. I lost my wallet a few weeks back and reported my card lost on Thursday. I'm having to use paypal at toolstation to buy anything. I can't use paypal at m&s and I've hardly and caviar, oysters and don perignon left.
It's a first world problem I suppose

Get a Harrods hamper or two delivered, I assume that you have an account there.

Couldn’t you have Harrods make you up a care package and just plop it on the old account?paulplom wrote: ↑Mon Feb 22, 2021 5:43 pm Is 20p worth half an hour of you life though.

I blame his butler.
He should be organising the various larders and cold stores.
