In the UK the shop is usually a shop=convenience so mapping it separately is
important as it needs to be findable by map users not interested in fuel.
My experience of mainland Europe is that unmanned pay at pump is much more
common than the UK.
Only Tesco and ASDA supermarkets offer that facility, Shell have actually
withdrawn the option.
