Just filled up - diesel pump did not cut off so spilled over car onto forecourt and over one shoe. Never happened to me before - reported it but got the impression they were not going to race out with sand. Bloody annoying - newish pumps as well.

Oh dear! And you get to smell diesel on your hands for ages after.
It's not something that's ever happened to me & I normally latch the trigger on when filling my Merc ..... look! No hands

I wear the rather fetching plastic gloves available at most forecourts.

No I tend not to bother - I may have to claim for a shoe??

Just the one. And you may be on shaky ground for not bothering to use the safety equipment provided.

Oh yeah, gloves don't cover feet, do they? 
I am a dense bastard sometimes.

Happens occasionally, on just about every car I've ever owned.  Can be the fault of the pump, the car, or a combination of both (must likely)

You wanna see the mess when the high speed truck pumps throw a fit

They still have the latches your way?  They were all removed down this way once stupidity took over from common sense.

I have absolutely no sympathy.

Serves you right for driving a planet/child killing derv car.
