After filling a full tank of fuel, can you hear it sloshing around sometimes?

After reading this post: http://www.meganeownersclub.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4662 it has made me wonder.. when you've just filled up a full tank of petrol/diesel, do you hear the fuel sloshing around for the first 50 miles or so? I do!

Just looking at the other thread, the guy who had the problem was driving a diesel. I notice that also you drive a diesel.

I have answered no. I drive a petrol engined car. Maybe it is a fuel type thing. It would be interesting to see what the other people who have replied drive.

Yes mine does it for the first gallon or so (50 miles) after brimming it full.
