So, instead of Onyx, I decided to give the Total tanker a go as he flyposted the boat. He sed the price varies from day to day with the oil price (i think - he was french) but never more than €.80 a litre. Then he turned up and sed it was flamin €.81. I cd have sentim away but i needed the stuff. Worse, the dashboard guage is a bit wrong so a few litres came out of the breather when i thought i had 500 litres to go. I think i will try the BP lorry next time as the lorry seems to be somehwat smarter turned out.

So, this time we had 1700 litres. Cept I didn't buy it or even orgainse it - the crewperson on board did. She booked with the Onyx tanker - and got .79€ a blimmin litre! So it was a waste of time and money me organising it last time wit Total when the tanker bloke (from Onyx anyway) evidently sells it cheaper EITHER cos the price has gone down a bit - OR cos she smiled nicely at him. Harumph .
