I pulled in to the Tesco filling station and there was only one available pump. It turned out to be a "pay at pump" one. I'm not greatly fond of those, but never mind, I thought.
I was surprised to see the "strap line" for the service is "save two minutes". Yes, folks it's two minutes quicker to pay at the pump! Have we really got to the point that two minutes is so important? If so, I think something has gone seriously wrong with the pace of society.
Oh, by the way, the pay at pump service wasn't working, so I had to traipse ten yards to pay the cashier. Oh, just to think of all the things I could have done in those two minutes!
