Did anyone have any problems trying to get petrol over the last few days? I didn't need any but have seen long queues at petrol stations and some forecourts have been closed. Mind you, the price of filling a tank these days is getting beyond a joke!

I've not needed any yet, hope they haven't run out by the time I need some because of "panic buying"

I was working in Cumbria yesterday and drove past quite a few petrol stations which were closed.

Not seen any Garages closed ,or big queues with the cost going up there will be less cars filling up.

Its stupid the prices especially with BP and Shell announcing their tiny profits of £7 billion in 3 months. Imagine what the government is making when they take about 78p in the pound. At least 10 times what the 2 main petrol sations have made!

I ride a motorcycle so I fill up once every 3 weeks thankfully! I am also fortunate that I can get 120 to the gallon too!

Does anyone use that red diesal from the station on Liverpool road? It caused my mate £400 worth of damage to save himself 10p a litre!
