Which kind of defeats the object.
When I'm in The Lakes or up North I'll always take advantage if I've an empty tank but on a week to week basis its the Shell or (from your map) the other place at 80ppl !
I also live in something of a black hole for LPG, nearest station is 12 miles away, next nearest is about 20-22 miles, depending on what route i use.

It is something of a false economy driving that sort of distance to fill up as it costs about £3 in LPG to get there and back and at a price difference of 8p/L, that's about 38L just to break even.

However, my nearest big supermarket isn't far from the nearest LPG station so i combine the two trips so my shopping trip becoms my LPG fill up trip. At least it will when i finish converting the 760!
