It breaks my heart filling the car up.

So I wait for the light to come on. Then wait a bit longer and a bit longer then eventually when I really have to, I fill it to the brim.

Then I feel sad and wish I could ride a scooter to work everyday.

I hate filling it up, but always do. It's a good way of keeping a tag on you efficiency (god that's boring). I can get 550miles to 45litres if i'm careful
I've no idea if that's good?

I have been trying to get as much as possible out of the tank - so usually leave it to when it gets under 30. Just so I can try and beat my last milage to a tank record. Silly I know - but its like a little challenge now.

Yeah - Pretty much the only thing in a year other than where to go for christmas. Why what does everyone else argue about??

Sooner be arguing about something trivial than somthing like me not doing house work etc, etc.

A bloke I work with drives a company car and has a company fuel card. I see the statements for the fuel cards. He only ever puts in whole multiples of pounds - never any pence. What's that all about? I fill my car until the pump goes 'click' and stops. And the light has to be on.
