Got paid today, which was kinda lucky as my reserve light came on this morning, then after work, spent the best part of 20 minutes driving around town trying to find a station that hadnt run out of diesel. And the local BP had put its price up to 1.51.9 by 3pm! Confusedhock:

Ended up having my tank filled for me (attended service, didnt know what to do with myself!), at 1.48, totalling £81.01.

Hangman works for me..

Maybe we could ask the person filling to guess the letters?
