    Was the A4 paper laminated? If not, according to my uncle's friend (who services air conditioning units btw), this is a breach of the Sale Of Trading Standards Act. I would immediately contact the OmbudsMum who will refund your money [STRIKE]back on to your card [/STRIKE] by way of poem.

    You forgot to add that they will also get free subway meatballs as compensation.

    This reminds me of times when i was working at Tescos. I've had many customers do the extract same thing. Although most read the sign saying Cash Only, but still go with a debit card and then getting annoyed saying its a debit, not credit card. They beleived that a debit card is the same as cash so it should be acceptable

    shell removed non halal sandwiches from sale in favour of halal ones despite the fact that this is a predominately devout catholic area. catholicism teaches that shell fuel is morally acceptable, similar to the jewish faith, however this goes directly against that.

    serving halal fuel and sandwiches and constantly violating every law in the land mean shell will no longer have my business.

    Where in any Bible or catholic publication does it say that shell fuel is morally acceptable?! What other laws have they broken?

    And what is halal fuel?!
