Plastic "diesel" gloves

Apart from nicking the odd pair each time I fill up the car, does anyone know a handy provider/seller of a box of those gloves ? I use them both for diving and motorcycling and they are quite handy to have lying around.

Apparently 'pound shops' do them, but I nick them from garages.

Does your car still smell of petrol?

Good plan. Poundstretcher next week it is then.

And yes the car does smell. No worse, no better. Still no sign of any leak, so I think its just fumes wafting out of the (very) cheap plug in fuel cap...

They are probably cheaper, but I would imagine they would be harder to get on and off compared to the loose plastic bag type ones. They just slide off even when they are wet at the end of the dive/bike trip.

I look after a Garage's website so I'll ask them next time I'm in.

I know when I did my open water Claire used some really handy celophane gloves, did the trick and probably a fraction of the price. But some people prefer latex, who am I to judge...?

My boy, don't worry already. This two pony town is big enough for the both of us.

No, wrong gloves, these are a bu**er under wet gloves as they will have a very slight texture to the them.

You want the clear cellophane style ones, usually have a seam running around them.
