Alas no pics, … I forgot to mention the knee high boots and hot pants btw, to complete the pictures in your mind! :laugh:. (blimey, those girls would be someone's grand mothers and nearing retirement now, hmm, theres a thought, do you know what your granny got up to in her teens? )

*said attendant would often wash/wipe your windscreen for you or add a shot or two of Redex to your fuel.. (petrol which was leaded and came in 2* , 3*, & 4* star quality and price variants btw) . All the while the driver remained seated in the comfort of his motor and was thanked as 'Sir/Madam' at the conclusion of the transaction. Also during the fun time non PC days of the 70's , petrol station events and promotions even included on occasion ' Topless Petrol Forecourt Attendants' usually provided by well proportioned ample bosomed local blond and brunette beauties. I remember one such 'topless attendant event' at my local petrol station in Longwell Green so know its a fact that it happened ?. Those were the days my friends!

A Payne In The Gas. (well done bloke ?)

Think its probably a district of this Canadian City...

Gas probably playing it safe with weekly rolling contracts - just in case!

It's an easy and understandable mistake for anyone to make... It's due to the widespread belief that there is only 'One Team In Bristol' This leads to the commonly used reference of ' Bristol ' in football terms therefore it is frequently misconstrued as meaning Bristol City FC … Reckon young Tom couldn't believe his luck when told 'Bristol' wanted him, what a shame, hard luck Tom, hope you enjoy camping. ?

They'd welcome interest from The Donald, just the thought of a promised wall build would do it... real bricks and mortar at The Mem, what a novel idea. #TheGasInDreamland.

…. Would require an experienced dismantling crew to do it safely. As you say wind would be an issue, the first sign of anything above a gentle breeze would get amateurs in a right old flap at The Mem.

It's been three long years... (these things take time)

Hmm, ….that's quite some conundrum

Money - it's a Gas.... four star daydream Think I'll buy me a football team! (any Wally can make a mistake!)

I'd miss some of the clowns around town to be honest, what a laugh, the gift..

It goes back generations - there are 80/90year old blokes in nursing homes in this City who's Red v Blue rivalry began in the 1940/50s and I'd bet a pound to a penny at some point today in those homes the old banter surfaced once again... And Red 90 yr olds are still enjoying the upper hand over the Gas that has lasted them a lifetime, 'don't let it die'. (as those of us old enough to remember Hurricane Smith will likely think deep down)

Exactly! (& I don't mean Accrington Stanley) granted a fair few people will have no idea who Bristol Rovers are. WE know though and they are an absolute gift to us.. Long may they 'linger' .

Anyone else sat waiting for a scruffy lookin' fella to emerge and tell us... "This week I 'ave mostly been cookin' the books''

It aint looking good for the Gas is it... They'll still be up to their ears in deep doo-doo even after we pay them the outstanding £9.3M on the Matty Taylor deal... ? I shall enjoy watching them squirm and suffer pain for a while (most of their sporting lives actually) but after all the agony and traumas I really hope someone somewhere comes out of the woodwork and saves them. I hate the thought of any club going to the wall, they all have years of blood sweat and tears behind them, every club (even the Gas) have a deep rooted place in the town, city, region, community in which they reside... (despite the Gas habit of roaming in the wilderness like homeless nomads) … I love 'the gap' and enjoyed massively the rivalry of ''are you City or Rovers?'' school playground banter growing up.. It's been great always being Red with superiority over them, but to enjoy rivalry you have to have an adversary and through the years The Gas has been just that, James Bond as a 'goody' would be boring as **** without a 'baddie' to deal with.. We've enjoyed massive superiority over them for years but from a selfish point of view life really wouldn't be the same without 'em tbh.. City v Rovers , Red or Blue etc long may the Bristol banter continue, as long as they remain our bitches of course. ?

Cant see 'US' having an interest, why the **** would we be interested in that lot?

…flogging their camels? FFS they'd be nothing without their 'caravans' that's what the pikey Gas are famous for.

Must be one of the built in apps surely (with an inclusive free subscription to play-off matches)

They bought it from Steve Lansdown … It was obviously gonna be 'One For The Future' ... wtf did they expect?

Less than half a crown …. That'll be a tiara then! … Probably do a decent sized rug for little more than a bracelet if that's the case.

….he just wants his putter back, which is fair enough really. If ever a bloke needed another club in his bag, Wally's the man.

Congratulations - that's grand mate.
