Lol, I used to live in Netherton, the Petrol Station is on the road out of Netherton towards Blackheath, just by a chipshop on a crossroads...scummy looking place. I'm sure I used to drive past your house when you had an S2......you're close to Merry Hill? On the road that comes out of Cradely up to the lights at Merry Hill?

I've moved back to Stourbridge now
