I tend to go out of my way to fill up petrol here, when the time comes. I do tend to drive for as long as possible when the light comes on but thankfully I haven't run out of petrol for a few years (touch wood!). I must admit, the handful of times it has happened it's been pretty embarrassing sitting by the side of the road waiting for rescue and having to acknowledge that I knew I was running out and kept driving anyway ... surely I'm not the only person who does this?!
Anyway, I digress. I know this petrol station well, they have a good selection of newspapers/magazines, drinks and snacks and the staff are friendly. It's not really the most modern petrol station and could do with a refurb on the inside. All in all though, when I stop here I can refill quickly and easily and get on the road again. read more
