WHAT THE FUCK???!!!!

Earlier, when taken the MX-5 to *finally* get repaired, I was at the final set of traffic lights, waiting to turn left, with the place about 2 mins away. In front of me, a woman in a Mazda2 waiting to turn right, also stopped red light, minding her own business. I heard a huge whack, 'that sound' when a car is involved in an accident, and two youths, presumably on a stolen motorbike must have lost control and smashed into her. Must have just been tearing down the street, jumping the red light. Bike in road and they got up and ran away (one of them limping). What a nightmare for her.
 
I took the dog for a walk down Caerphilly today and wandered into a Morrisons petrol station (as you do).
I saw this as I walked passed it, and thought I'd take a pic to give lpgc a thrill

I work at Calor as a Maintenance Spark, and the small ones with the handles always remind me of a Hybrid Space hopper 🤣

Don't bother asking if they any though, answer is always no. I'm boycotting Morrisons/MFG for charging more for LPG than E10. I'm not LPG powered but if that is the way the market is going then it's bad news for @Lpgc

A lot of forecourts that sell LPG from forecourt pumps also sell bottled gas.

Did I mention I sell pumps that can pump gas from bottles into LPG converted vehicle tanks? :p :innocent:

It's the way it seems to be going at MFG owned forecourts... £1.299 was a crazy ridiculously high price, even since they reduced it to £1.09 it's still a stupidly high price. But that's not representative of LPG prices, most LPG is used for home heating etc and the price of that hasn't changed much during all of MFG's messing with forecourts, it hasn't changed the price of bottled gas or bulk supplied gas. The pumps I'm selling can be used to take advantage of the usually lower and always available bottled gas price, but probably not in the smaller sized (smaller than 47kg 92litre) bottles or at most petrol station forecourts.
 
Well, the opposite of wtf, but my MX-5 is finally done (well, once it went in it was only Monday to today), after you might recall that f-er who rear ended me on his phone 11 weeks ago. And they've done a cracking job. A1. Match is fantastic. Seriously looks the same. I gave him a big hug. Lots of TLC with it too- tucking up nice inside so it didn't get wet, and with the half cover on too, sent me photos of it. Good job I hung on for the Mazda approved place.

Very pleased to read that mate, glad you've got it back and are happy with the job they've done. :) 👍
