    Not going to bother. If I can't get fuel I have the perfect excuse to work from home for a week
    Then my only problem is how to stop the kitten from playing with my laptop's power cord...where's an electrocution smiley when you need one?

      What would you burn down that would need 20 cans of unleaded?

        Apparently, a lot of problems has been caused by older drivers. I.e The selfish old people who stress that they cant get to tesco for their one 5 mile trip of the week so need to stockpile loads of petrol!

            Make sure you panic first
            Too late for that advice now. I paniced on Tuesday and have a full tank. As I never go anywhere that should see me out.

                Once MF starts buying the tanker drivers will go back to work. If he ran a funeral parlour no-one would die.

                  Well thats me screwed. I've run out of petrol cans to store fuel in, The wheelie bins already full and Tesco carrier bags aren't up to the job. The petrol leaks out of the little anti-asphxiation holes they put in the bags, they were almost empty by the time I'd carried them home
                  Confusion is a natural state of being

                    Well all my tropical fish are now dead.


                    I filled up the tank with super unleaded. Sacrifices must be made. When the govt tells you to panic you know it's serious.

                      There's only so much petrol people can fit into their tanks, so hopefully by the time I want to fill up, petrol stations will be devoid of all human life and the strike not yet started.
