down the hill, but luckily there was a total petrol
station right at the bottom, and I actually ran drifted
into the into the petrol station and actually stopped beside
the pumpel.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
It down there, using the momentum of the hill. Yeah,

What happened?
Speaker 2 (02:27):
I ran out in the Burnley Tunnel in a big
game worth semi trialer many years ago.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
This is ruining, This is impacting thousands of people.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
If there was people killing up for bloody kilometers behind me,
and when they were flowing gods and passed and there
was many fists waving as.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
You should just hide at the bottom of the habit.
You just walk off, leave it there, find another job,
go into a witness protection And how do you fill
up a big truck like that? Normally just a normal
sort of car. You get the little can. What do
you need to do?
Speaker 5 (03:06):
Well?
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Funny that particular morning, because I've got we had four
big fuel tanks on the truck. I rang up my employer,
they rang up the local kill were feeler in Lebanon
who brought me out of forty four gallons fuel and.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
We bigs nods and on that. It's actually a slide,
a kid slide forty four gallons. That's huge.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
So that's how we we pumped it into the into
the fuel tank and we managed to get it started
and I yeah, we got down in So.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
How long were you blocking the Burnley Tunnel?
Speaker 5 (03:40):
Were stopping for an hour?
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Oh my god? And it was this in the morning
or in the afternoon rush hour.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Take out.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Oh classic story that lansa plenty. This is the gino'connell
show podcast right now. Your story is about where did
you run out of fuel? This happened to my wife yesterday. Finally,
years and years living in that red Can you live
like that? The stress? Christian? You were asking can you
(04:16):
push a car because you don't see it much these days?
You don't because with automatic cars you can't do it,
doesn't work. You can only do it with a manual transmission.
Come on, Cherrard in Macedon, Christian, I was cruising to Gisbone.
Range came up to zero, I had zero left and
(04:37):
I knew I had about fifteen k to make to
the sovo. Get this. I made it to the edge
off the soo. How to go and buy a five
liters can so I could drive eight meters to the park. Brad,
that's great. Good morning Christian about work. This is a
(04:58):
Natalie Common and Natalie, my mum is in her own words,
a very strong, devout Christian. And on both occasions she
has run out of petrol. She's been on a hill
of sorts and rolled into a petrol station at the
bottom of the hill. She always says, the Lord works
in mysterious ways. I just say it's dumb luck. I
love that, Natalie Christian. Many years ago, my husband used
(05:19):
to run out of petrol all the time. How can
you do this all the time? One occasion, he ran
out of petrol the end of the freeway. He wondered
about three hundred meters away to a servo with a
Jerry can. I waited patient in the car. I happened
to look in the rear visionary and a notice that
behind us very long cue. Right behind us there was
a funeral procession in the hers. There was only one
(05:42):
exit lane, and nowhere to go. I was so mortified.
I slid down in my seat and waited until my
now ex husbands broke up in that car. He just left.
I could see he was just having a lovely long
chat to the servo attendant. No rush whatsoever. The funeral
directors were waving their hands around all over the place
(06:03):
and booping their horns. I don't think they're allowed to
beat their horns. I don't know if you. I've never
forgotten the shame. That's from Michelle b Anchor. Good morning,
good morning, Good morning, be anchored, so running out of fuel.
What happened?
Speaker 4 (06:17):
Oh, my husband bought a new boat and decided, nice day,
go out on the bay. Wonderful launch the boat cruising along.
All of a sudden they had a fuel The boat stopped.
We had to paddle into shore. Finally made it to shore,
missed all the rocks at the end of Oliver's Hill.
They're on the point. I had to jump out with
the fuel tank, walk up the hill and walk into
(06:38):
a school as to use the phone so that my
little brother could come and get me so I could
get more fuel.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
So where do you go to get more fuel if
the boat's run out?
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (06:49):
You have to put the oars in the water and
paddle like crazy to get to shore.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Bloody hell, what a nightmare. Never even thought about that.
I wanted. That happens with jet skis as well, where
suddenly they're hammering around them. Thank you very much the story,
No worries.

Have a great day.

wire a little bit, and they had a lot of
money to leave it out the front one morning, I
get up, it's gone, someone's stolen it. Funny thing years
on they got around the corner because it ran out
