Just out of interest what engine did the caravan have in it when you won the race with your tractor?

Race was from sutton under whitestone cliff to Sutton bank visitors center only 3 or 4 miles. Sutton bank is prohibited to caravans, the divertion is long. My opponent who let me choose a location had to forfeit the race. So i win, by default maybe, but victory is victory.

well your claiming a race against a caravan with a tractor, if the caravan didn't have a engine or at least a motor mover then even a snail wound win. so to make it fair race again but this time use a tractor without a engine. Rolling with laughter Common sense isn't very common.

Worms, that's not what CG has written, but a race between a caravan and a tractor.

29p but you'll be paying some duty wont you in your 49p?

sadly I have no way of refueling vehicles from my tanks, that needs a pump drawing liquid from bottom of tank, I use the vapour from top of tanks for fueling heaters At work

Yes road duty included in the £0.499, properly wrong but I think it's the lowest retail price in the country.
If you draw lpg from the bottom of your tank you will be charged duty on all of the gas even if you use it for something else from the top. Common sense isn't very common.
