I guess he'll have to make do with his regular income from 300 petrol stations ticking over without a panic. Oh well. Maybe we can all have a whip around for the poor lad.

Here's the latest from him..... 'Folks. Sounds like the tanker drivers are turning down the agreed settlement. It doesnt mean that a strike is definately on, UNITE have until Friday to call that, but it does mean that it is still a possibility so people will start rushing to the pumps again. This isnt a marketing ploy by the way!'
