    Just been to shell to fill up. Disappointed to find no notices, and my amex worked perfectly. As I have nothing to moan about I'm feeling left out.

    We're they deliberately stocking cheese sandwiches to attract vegetarians?


    There must have been something. Shell are criminals of the highest order. Next time, take an elderly lady with you and see if she's insulted.

    No such thing as the Trading Standards Act. The signs weren't illegal, you're just talking rubbish. I really hope you're a troll because I don't want there to be someone this iidiotic allowed to use the internet.

    Or drive..

    The mother could have been driving, but I also wouldn't want someone so elderly in charge of a car ;)

    Do they do meatballs at Shell garages?

    not sure they do - but 185 branches of subway are going halal - i bet the op has one nearby. the good news is affected branches will have to have signs put up. i only hope the signs have been pre-approved by a conservatry salesman and a bin cleaner or subway could fall foul of the law with halal meatballs.
    Dogs return to eat their vomit, just as fools repeat their foolishness. There is no more hope for a fool than for someone who says, "i am really clever!"

    Don't let crazy Emz find out, there will be a new Subway thread about the illegal sale of halal products without the correct signage (as approved by the Conservatory Salesman Act 1776).

    You just know what is going to come next on this site, don't you? lol
    Whilst posting, does anyone know of any petrol station in the north west that sells sandwiches with the following filling, Roast Pork and Pease pudding? OH was wretching at the thought of it. Had one the other week out of a petrol station in Gateshead and it was Lush ! And it was run by proper Geordies. Non Halal of the best order !

    My local Shell garage has just had a refurb and has opened again with an M&S shop; I'm going to check it out next time I fill up there and see if they have meatballs and whether my son can try one.

    Where did the Premier Inn thread go. I remember something about staff smoking drugs and the manager knocking down doors in the middle of the nigh stark naked yelling Donkey Face.

    I liked that one too. A troll with a sense of imagination (in troll-terms must have been a throw-back) beyond compare. Emz11 is weak in comparison.

    I recall a "strong smell of drugs" being bandied about on that old one... happy days... :beer:
