don't really notice it at the moment, may do in 2 weeks  
it's not a photoshop by the way, must be a way of enticing people into buying their petrol

The Sainsbury's where I live has A4 numbers over the sign. Not sure if 1) there sign goes up that high or 2) it's broken.

When I worked at a petrol station that's exactly what we were instructed to do

i heard the only reason a mobile is dangerous is in case you drop it and it creates a spark, is this right?

Mobiles cannot start a fire in a petrol station by using them or ringing or any other normal use.
Dropping it and the battery causing a spark I suppose is more realistic but it's harder than you think to ignite petrol.

It's the fumes that ignite rather than the liquid itself
