Might sound daft but where do you fill up your Motorhome?

Asda looks only suitable for cars as you have to go through that narrow bit at the checkout and I am not sure if you can get out of Morrisons  unless you reverse and there will always be some prat who pulls in behind you.

We used to fill up at the local one near the roundabout but they charged me twice for my petrol on my credit card and are claiming I managed to put nearly £90 worth of petrol in my freelander in one go! So we have a dispute with them and the credit card company and the police are investigating the matter.

Plus.......I went in there and told him he was a very dishonest person (only I used different words! ) so I can't go in there again! When we fill up the Motorhome I have to hide in the back of it so they don't see me!

Just wondered where you went for your petrol?

  We prefer to use named brands (shell, BP, Texaco etc.) I have heard some nasty stories about supermarket fuel have even heard reports of water in the fuel. I'd say there's no point in being tight when it comes to buying fuel might as well be better safe than sorry.

I,m sure you,ll be ok in Morrisons  Morley as long as you use the two rows to the left as you are looking at the kiosk. I have used Asda Morley, but you can only use  the fast card pay, as I am pretty sure its not possible to get between the kiosks without bringing in your wing mirrors, and the left handside is kerbed pretty narrowly imho.

Don,t do what I did at the asda, went to the normal pump, filled up, headed towards the kiosk, decided it wouldn,t go, did a U- turn and went out the opposite way, Would have been ok till I got a letter from the boys in blue on corporation street, telling that I,d better go pay for the diesel !!! LOL.

Hope the new Van is ok , did you sort the little bits and bats out?

PS Hows your tie backs ???

Thanks Big B,will try Morrisons!

OMG did you do a runner then from Asda!!!

New Van is fabulous! Sorted out everything that has manifested its self so far but we have not used it yet!

We were planning a trip to Southport this weekend but we had to cancel,we may get off late Saturday or go for a run on Sunday.

The roof light needs changing,I did manage to climb up and see if there was still plastic on but it is just very badly scratched so there is a new cover on order.

The tie backs are a different style to old ones,they are basically fabric will velcro on,they do not hook onto the wall so if your thinking what I think your thinking they would be of no use what so ever,unless of course you wanted to wear them as accessories with your pj's!!!!!!!!

Oh I am in big trouble at THAT garage!

They charged me twice for my petrol and would not give me a refund,if we fill up the Motorhome I have to put a bag on my head!!!

They all do look dodgy round there,I better watch my royal step!

I see we all have four red socks,I wonder who will be the first to get five red socks?
