1:10am, hire confirmed for 5:30. Driver asks a 5000 fuel float before he sleeps. Pump is 382 diesel. I can pay fuel on the card at the pump. He says pumps 'might be cash only at dawn'.

Pay fuel at the pump you both stand at. 382 is the board. Dawn pumps on the A3 take cash and often cards; I will not promise a specific machine. A 5000 float at 1am is how floats vanish. If he needs cash, you withdraw in the morning and pay the attendant together. Day rate separate.

We filled together at 5:50, card worked. Fine. Float would have been a gift.

Photo the meter km at start. Fuel float arguments love amnesia.

399/475/382. Repeat it until the poetry stops.
