The stupid thing is I have been past a couple of petrol stations and been in a couple (once for fuel, another to use the air pump) and they've been fine.

People are all going to the same ones, the cheaper ones. I'd rather pay a quid or two extra and avoid the muppets.

I hope it settles down over the next couple of days.  I have enough fuel until Sunday but will need to drive to Heathrow on Monday so will need to fill up and can't be fucked waiting in a queue.  That's of course if there's any fuel left by then.

Being totally selfish, I'm just hoping I'll have a full tank of fuel to drive up to the Morecambe match as I've already bought my ticket and paid for 2 nights B&B in the Lake District afterwards.

"In Ilkley in Yorkshire a motorist was asked to leave the forecourt of one of the town's two petrol stations after he snatched the pump out of the hand of a female driver, an eyewitness said.

The other petrol station had run dry. "

Oh dear.

Quote
A woman suffered serious burns when petrol ignited as she was decanting it in the kitchen of her York home because her daughter had run out of fuel.

The woman, who is in her 40s, suffered 40% burns in the accident in the Acomb area of the city on Thursday.

She has been taken to the burns unit at Pinderfields Hospital.

A fire service spokesman said: "Her daughter asked her mum for petrol because she had run out. The cooker was on and the fumes ignited."

'Extreme care'
 
The woman was treated by ambulance personnel in her kitchen before being taken to Pinderfields.

Her condition is not known but a North Yorkshire Fire Service spokesman described the burns as severe.

Two firefighters wearing breathing apparatus extinguished the fire in the kitchen and removed the remaining petrol.

A North Yorkshire Fire Service spokesman said: "Members of the public should take extreme care when handling and storing petrol and be aware of the risks associated with incorrect use and storage of fuel.

"Never bring petrol inside your home. If you do smell petrol fumes in a garage or outbuilding ventilate the area and make sure nobody smokes or turns electrical

Swindon was pretty dry last night for Diesel, certainly in the southern part of the town.
