There's a petrol shortage in my car at £1.06.4 per litre for unleaded and £1.14.4 for Diesel. It's no bloody wonder the price of stuff is going up and up I wonder what the rate of inflation is now? Apart from missing out on the 1.5% this year we have to wait til next year for a pay rise. :evil/mad

We have our own Diesel Pumps, so they will just get all the Drivers to use the Petrol Stations first. Then, when they run dry, they'll use our own Pumps. That's what they did during the last Fuel shortage, and it worked then. I'm just glad my car runs on Petrol! The local residents with Diesel Cars, are really going to be in a mess. Once we start filling all our Vehicles up, the Pumps will run dry pretty quickly!

Well done the public yet again !! :evil/mad the workers will be blackmailed to end their strike before it starts.
Hope it spreads south it might stop some of them from using their cars.
