away and don't be daft General,
theres no way you can sneak in and out of carradale without someone spotting you, especially not with Beachcomber sitting opposite watching the world go by.....
Aye, before your toes have hit the carradale soil the word will be round,
but, i'm sure you'll get a warm welcome, (well certainly from Mary who has always got a smile on her face, a nicer woman i've yet to meet, and you say you are related, how strange :) )
only joking x

Theyve been crafty and been putting the County's fuel up a penny every few days so it doesnt look that much, and is there not another 2p to go on anyway?

Red diesel is at 50p a litre Im led to believe, exactly what unleaded petrol was 12 yrs ago....

Bloody ridiculous.

Also sneaky is that the new 'Tesco' filling station in Lochgilphead doesn't accept the discount vouchers Tesco stores hand out. Apparently it's only the shop that Tesco own there - the petrol side of it belongs to BP.

the discount voucher doesnt work at lochgilphead.the fuel is supplied by esso, but if you look at the terms on the voucher it tells you that it is not accepted at esso/tesco filling stations.

Fuel is supplied by Esso I thought.
