Hi.
Today I stopped off at my local Tesco petrol station to fuel up my trusty iron chariot and was greeted by 3 members of staff hanging around the fuel pumps. When I got out the car one of the young staff lady's came over and said if I want fuel I will have to pay for it at the pump with my card as the petrol station shop was closed. I've never payed for fuel this way before ,so she was very helpful to show me. As I glanced over to the shop I noticed it was in darkness with traffic cones across the door . Naturally I asked what was the problem with the shop and the answer I got left me gob smacked. No word of a lie, they had closed the shop because the air conditioning inside had broken down!! and it was to hot to work in there. I didn't comment, but I thought what's the world coming to when a petrol shop closes because the air con is not working.Just imagine how hot it must be working on the highways dressed in all that safety gear or a kitchen catering for school meals. It's been exceptionally hot for everybody to work these last couple of days where conditions are a lot tougher than just sitting down taking money for fuel.
The mind boggles lol :-)
