Are all petrol station attendee's thick as horse shit?
funny you should say that as i done the opposite at tottenham hale BP, i filled up, went to get cash out to pay and then i went to answer my phone, totally forgot and then got back in my car and drove to work, atlunch time i reaslied what i done and so went back to the station to pay as i should have done, they then said that they knew the car but showed me the reg of another car, i said it aint mine, they showed cctv image to me of it and then discovered it was the car AFTERme as my cossie dont have a front plate on it
so they was gonna nick someone else as they never had MY plate just so they never got in trouble by there boss ect
oh and i was also anoyed as that means i could have had 50 quids worth of fuel foc if i never went back
