Just been told at the Petrol station that they cant authorise the pump until they see the container they think I'm filling in the boot! This is over a loud tannoy, much to the amusement of the other customers!

That's why I try to stick to the same petrol stations if I can. First fillup at most stations involves a lot of waiting around as the pump attendants figure out why your boot is open!

ive had it happen a couple of times at petrol stations i dont normally use, the last time i had to go in to the petrol station and explain, before i could get petrol because its kind of difficult to lift ur petrol tank out of the boot and show them.

Every time I wonder if it'll be the first time I get the tannoy treatment!

Yep, filling up at the same place so they know the car cuts out the hassle.
