@nprofile…gtt6 Back in probably about 1973 my uncle filled a five gallon tin with petrol and left it in his garage in case the petrol ran out. (His garage was well away from his house - both horizontally and vertically, he lived in Dunedin) And left it there "in case".
20 or so years later he parked his car in the garage, got out and would have sat down on his petrol tin to rest for a few minutes (emphysema is a bastard) and it wasn't there.
Somewhere else in Dunedin, we guess, some little shits were finding out that ten gallons of 20+ year old petrol, when tipped into whatever type of car little dropkick bogans drove at the time, didn't run nearly as well as new petrol bought from the petrol station...
