The Esso station opposite was dry. That Esso station had unleaded at prices: Sunday 93.9p Monday 94.9p Tuesday 95.9p (but closed) I'm not really bothered as I filled my tank last week.

Nevertheless, the cars around here are racing down the dual carriageway to the next traffic light, just as usual.
