Another "menu" question, for the cars rather than the passengers.

Does anyone have knowledge of suitable (e.g. Tesco, Shell) locations in, near or en-route to/from Kelso to fill up with 99RON?

Finally: gone, but not forgotten.....
1998 D2 PF S8. Agate Grey/Platinum. Every option (I think) except electric rear seats, Tiptronic steering wheel, ski hatch, towbar & dimming door mirrors.
e.g. Cruise control, NavPlus/TV, Bose, GSM, Xenons, Solar roof, Parking sensors, Alcantara/leather everywhere of course. (internal dimming mirror added later)
1998 (very early) Ford Focus 1.8 Zetec; ABS/TCS, Heated screen/mirrors, Aircon. Added Auto-dim mirror, Leather seats, Trip computer, Cruise control, OEM Ford SatNav with CD changer.
And before that a lot of Rover 800s, a few oddities, a lovely Triumph Dolomite 1850HL with Overdrive and way back in my schooldays an Austin Seven aka Mini 850!

Though there is a Sainsburys in Kelso which has super unleaded, 97RON I think.
If you can wait till Saturdays run, there's a Shell in Highfields Berwick, actually on the route (by design maybe?).

And oddly, just outside Rothbury, which is where we're heading on Sunday afternoon for a few days. Cragside is near there for those into such places.
