Leaving Manchester

Today we had a rental car booked, they were to pick us up from the hotel "between 8:30 and 9:30 in the morning". Yeah right! It was 9:45am, and by the time the paperwork was sorted with the rude and incompetent staff, it was gone 10:30am already and we realised as we were leaving that our car only had 1/4 tank of petrol. Not a good start to the day.
