do it as well as you can,but learn to do it better
I've got myself one of these kits for 200 odd quid and I guess I'll just use an oil drum I got for free. The tight scotsman in me won't let me pay 500 quid for a plastic box :ROFLMAO:

stole this one for 60 quid in Nov. '17 .... should've bought all they had and sold 'em on ... fluid outfit flogging off surplus stock - flagged it up at the time - think Rory bought a couple ... been a great unit ...

only bought the tank 'cos it was cheap ;) and gave me extra capacity with a built in pump
still use the pump kit for the dumper ... and 'Drema if I'm doing the Thwaites - other wise I have a re-fuelling pump on that for sucking it out the drums

also these to be had if you have a hose and nozzle ... deffo used to do 12v versions .. would have to ask them.. very good to deal with

Depending on how many machines and no idea of cost but isn't it feasible to fit a little refueling pump to each machine instead ?

Thought the protest on the bridge was about prices not the burning of oil 🤔 if it was the former then crack on 👍

Oil dropped 10% today
In advance of expected interest rate hike by the US and fears it will start a recession.
Big question is will it stay down?
I am not convinced, until the end of the war and Russian oil being available worldwide, I suspect we are in for over $100 a barrel on going. Hope I am wrong!!

And as if we weren't paying enough already for diesel.... some retard in marketing at Crown Oil thought that your average business might like to pay for some greenwash on top!

I did indeed email my account manager!

"
Thanks for this. The other day, whilst contemplating the combined spectres of diesel prices at the highest they have ever been, the imminent economic collapse, the removal of red diesel for most machines and then your prices which are consistently five pence per litre than anywhere else, I found myself thinking - What I really want is to pay extra for some greenwash bullshit!
Major props to your marketing department. We could all do with a laugh in the current climate."
