Well not quite, just the french government.

In case you havn't guessed yet, this about me spending over an hour trying to get petroleum spirit.

I tried 5 garages before I found an open 1, then they would only let me get £10 worth, and then after a half hour que at the sixth garage I managed to fill up totally.

How am i expected to get to and from Leeds twice, to work everyday this week, and back to uni in Liverpool next week with the very likely chance of getting no petrol between now and then????

It is all down to the french, if their government hadn't given in to their demands, our people wouldn't have thought "hey, if they can do it, so can we". I don't blame the french people or the british, just the french government for giving in so quickly. If this had gone on for a few weeks in france i would have already gone to these Leeds games, and would be back in liverpool with no car and would have just laughed at what was going on.

P.S. I live in scunny, and for those that are still in the dark, halfway between Lincoln and Hull. If you still don't know, look it up and the total for this journey is about 400 miles round trip!!!!!

It is no longer available at all here, luckily I have a full tank.

If anyone is wondering what this has to do with Fifa2000, it's simple.

Fifa2000 if a football game (bet you never guessed that) and the petrol shortage is hindering my chances of getting to football matches. On this bases, I think this is a fully acceptable post and not completely unrelated (unlike tranformers scripts)
