About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At BP gas station late one night, a delivery driver growled into his radio: ‘I’ve seen things here I shouldn’t have!’ ‘What did you see?’ asked his mate curiously. ‘Nothing much,’ shrugged the driver, scratching his head. ‘Just an old guy filling up with gas and telling everyone he’s “almost out of diesel.”’

2. At BP gas station early morning, a sleepy attendant asked aloud: ‘Why is it always cows that come here for midnight snacks?’ Just then, an old neighbor walked in on his way home from the night shift. He scratched his head and replied with a yawn, 'Maybe they heard about our late-night milk special!' The attendant shook his head, smiling, as another cow calmly approached the pump.

3. At BP gas station midday, an old man whispered to himself: ‘I’m pretty sure I saw that pump smiling back at me.’ A delivery driver glanced over and thought he saw the same grin too. The old man leaned in closer to whisper: ‘Don’t worry, sonny, it’s just BP trying to lure us in for another fill-up.’ Everyone laughed, except maybe the pumps.

4. At BP gas station dusk, a tourist exclaimed: 'Look, I think that pump just winked at me!' The attendant smiled and said, ‘No, ma’am, it’s just our new LED technology.’ A delivery driver chimed in, ‘Actually, it probably was winking—it sees you coming from miles away!’ Everyone laughed, and the tourist shook her head with a smile, realizing she’d fallen for an old petrol-station prank.
