Originally posted by PaffI'm a Shell Tanker Driver, well now owned by GB Oils (used to be Cory Oil, then Shell Direct) and we are called Emo Oil which gets a big reaction from the kids when they see the tanker and they take pictures of it on their mobiles
I deliver domestic heating fuel, gas oil & derv to farms etc.
I am also a time served light vehicle motor tech - fitter
Have now handed my notice in after being in the fuel trade for 18 years !
There is only so much sh*t you can take as the new owners (see above) have in the last three years made the job sooooooo stressful and don't think you have a home to go to, expecting you to do 12hr days.
So will try being self employed as oil fired boiler tech.
BTW - Have got sell my Surf and am looking for a ex-british gas racked out Combo/Kangoo van.

How close is heating oil to derv? coz it's pretty cheap compared with derv, and yes I know if you get caught they take a dim view, but it would be difficult to tell with a mix of veg oil in there with some derv and some kerosine.
What do ya think?Rob
Still working for the man!

Wish they'd fitted afterburners to those Avons! That would have been awesome!
Apache, you are correct, that is a PR9. unfortunately left service last year.. They didn't need afterburners the 2 avon mk206's were enough. I think the airframe would have fallen to bits with reheat. (sorry to the rest of you, I am not really a timothy potter 'airplane spotter' )

95% of heating oil I deliver is kerosene (Paraffin), so no good for your engine unless you want to strip the oil out of it
The gas oil which is red diesel would run it OK BUT it's a BIG NO NO as even a little to 'get you home' stains the filter, lines, pump etc and can be picked up by VOSA - Big fine !!
And they CAN tell whatever the mix !Life on the edge is short, but the view is great !
