Fuel Station Marshall's

[fruitsalad]

They, found some covid Marshall's maybe they could find some petrol station Marshalls, to control the greed and idiotic behaviour at the pumps.

[choux]

I wouldn't do that job, even with danger money.

Filled up at my local Sainsbury's this morning. No queue and a polite chap in hi-viz directed me to a pump.

[roadman]

they should just make sure people cant take more than what they can fit in their tank and then there wont be a shortage allowing people to fill jerry cans and stuff is what has created the issue and i know people fill the jerry for their lawn mowers and garden machinery or whatever but better Greg cant cut his grass than it is for Tim to not be able to get to work and think of the emergency services if they can get fuel or not god help them at this time

Been past 3 filling stations today - 2 had no fuel, Morrisons a long queue. I can wait!

[gulliver1]

See that you can now get take aways delivered to your car while you wait in the queue .

15.51 Boris and Shapps says the crisis is almost over and things are improving . Trust them.

[roadman]

there never was a crisis the only crisis is he people buying more than they need easy way to up fuel spend by 500% whilst causing public panic classic media

[johnny.5]

massive cash injection that should balance the books for a little while

Am I Right ?
I'm Not Wrong !

[roadman]

they thought hmm bit too long till Christmas and fat chance of making up some random public holiday for a quick cash injection like easter or valentines day ;)

Sainsbury's had attendants yesterday informing customers of the £30 limit. No problems and not a long queue.

[gulliver1]

Maggie how many litres would £30 buy where you are?

[david small]

Due for my monthly fuel top up. First garage, £20 limit.
Morrison’s no restrictions, no queue. Yet, other Morrison’s eight miles away, closed, no fuel.

[sanmac]

I wonder if it's possible to program the pumps so that they cut-off at 30 pounds?

[diddlydo]

Why not set the limit at £10 - then the owners of gas-guzzling 4x4 monsters might consider whether their journey is really necessary?

[jazzyjen]

Has this all been engineered to make more people consider buying electric cars?

[maggiebee]

Gully, average petrol price per litre where I stay is 132.1p.

[gulliver1]

22.03 Thanks Maggie,

[sanmac]

78p a litre here.

Although they had neither petrol nor diesel, a local petrol station was asking £1.52 for petrol. £1.52!
