Default Re: Golden Fleece Servo

Bit of an old thread, but I hadn't read it before, and it got me thinking.
I remember as a kid growing up in Como, there were 8 or 9 servos within walking distance of my house. There were 3 BP's, Caltex, Mobil, Ampol, Shell, Amco(?), and the one on the highway that only closed a few years back and went through several name changes. I can recall The Golden Fleeces, and there may have been one at Applecross. In those days they only opened after hours and on weekends on a Roster basis. So you'd go to the nearest one and their would be a sign in the window saying "nearest roster is..."
Of all those stations, the old SHell (which has been a Gull for many years) is the only one remaining, and maybe the BP at the shops?
