I'd actually go and leg it to the petrol station right now were it not too cold out ...

So rather than get "cold" you waste the AA's time, to call them out to put petrol in your car, I hope no one who was "genuinely broken down" knows who you are, and when you do breakdown don't come on here complaining you waited xx hrs for them to attend to you

Excuse me, Mr La-di-da.

You're talking to the guy who's been an AA/RAC member since I passed my test in 1984.

So far, in all that time, I've called them out precisely three times (and that includes today).

I didn't call them last night because, well, it wasn't urgent. And when I phoned them this morning they asked if I was disabled or had any kids with me ... and I not only said no to both, I expressly told their operator than in no way whatever was I a priority and that I was quite content to wait until they had someone free, rather than leaving some poor beggar stranded.

So go and take yourself, your opinions and go jump in the Thames, or any other suitable watercourse sufficiently deep enough for you to drown in.

I'll go and jump in a "watercourse" if you promise not to run out of petrol again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jeez, a once in a 25 year blip in an otherwise unblemished driving career ... maybe I'll go jump in the river if that keeps ya happy

And on top of that he came back here and gave the thread a conclusion which in my books means he gets a few stars
