Car Forum / Land Rover Cars / May 2008Bloody Tesco highway robbery
We had a few different brand filling stations round the village until Tesco and their discounted fuel policy caused Elf and Total to pull out leaving just 3 Shell stations I called in to fuel up (didn't) and they have hiked the price to 128.9 actually 3p per more than Shell worse the veg oil which 4 weeks ago was 52p is now 118p. Beats me why they don't go the whole hog and wear a mask and carry horse pistols.

However, the shell fuelcard is more than that for this week, so I reckon it's going up again. SignatureAustin Shackles. www.ddol-las.net my opinions are just that Travel The Galaxy!

Goodness mate I didn't realise I was that old, a heavy long barrelled pistol allegedly favoured by Highwayman - (the blokes with tricorn hats not the ones in dayglo toyotas on the motorways) usually carried in a holster on the horse - sorry I couldn't resist posting the link http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=VPgHbt0ODr4 Derek http://www.militaryheritage.com/images/dragoonpistol1.jpg >> *sigh* go on then, "what's a horse pistol". > Goodness mate I didn't realise I was that old, a heavy long barrelled pistol > allegedly favoured by Highwayman Ah right, I thought you were cracking a gag and was expecting a reply along the lines of "where you go if your health isn't *stable* (gettit gettit)". I heard a similar joke while travelling on a duckway transporting a chavin.
