Not really, even though I have three vans with 100 litre tanks I haven't had any trouble getting fuel. It's just the price of the stuff that troubles me lol.

Andy, don't use too much water diluting the water, otherwise what will I use in my whiskey? As for the petrol, well I suppose you could always try diluting that, but then you'd really be called some names on the road as white van man breaks down! At least it would keep you away from the PC, and you never know the sand might soak up some of the spillage as your tank is emptied out!
