[Tigers] Gas Nozzles and Rootesmobiles

[TIGEROOTES at aol.com]

Listers,
       A few years ago I went to a local Shell Station to refuel my 1957 
Hillman Minx which unlike my Tiger, has a simple tube that rises a couple inches 
outside the body.  This particular gas nozzle had a spring-loaded 'bellows' and 
the da##ed thing got stuck over the  tube!

       I fought with the demonic device for at least two minutes until it 
finally 'popped out' and then the nozzle and hose flew out of my hand landing 
behind my car and slammed to the ground.

       When I went inside to pay and to complain, "Mo" read me the riot act 
and I cannot say here what I said back to him.  The customer is always right?  
How about when I become physically attached to a business and cannot leave?
