One of mantras that used to do the rounds that was just about dying
off in the mid sixties concerned the JET brand of petrol.


Yes! Jet. That was the name I was trying to remember earlier, and yes,
Jet was the subject of many a story, probably all untrue.


Back then, fuel prices seemed much less volatile, and it seemed
much easier to predict whether it would be a cheap or expensive
station by simply seeing the brand. Nowadays there really doesn't
seem to be any predictability at all.
