99.9p/L here in Wales where Hazel lives. One garage has closed but the other seems ok and no-one in the forecourt either. Not that I need to fill/top up..........just walked down out of curiosity/a beer, to see what was going on :smiley:

Good idea! 99% of the British are dumb enough to believe anything I reckon after the last couple of days. Round here (Northampton) most garages have run out of unleaded - people are still bloody queuing though! The rest of the world must just laugh at the UK - not only do we pay more for everything (including fuel) than most other countries, but mass hysteria sets in so easily here........... :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
