On the other side society is designed for mass car use as well, not as bad as in America but still there. No thought to any other type of infrastructure at all.

Ayrshire folk are chill. Weegies are grasping, greedy, selfish fuckers. In my experience. Tractors do have better fuel economy than vehicles driven by normal people, tbf. 🚜 Plenty of pumps open here AFAIK, except for the posh premium petrol, (meaning my motor's had to make do with cooking petrol this month).

I had 60 mile left in the tank and the nearest fuel station is 15-20 miles away in Arbroath so thought I would be in for a massive queue yesterday but there was absolutely nobody else there. They were saying Scotland wasn't as bad especially outside the Central belt. Obviously we are smarter up here 😊 Edited September 30, 2021 by Lamia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
