It may be worth filling up your tank now, there may be fuel blockades in the uk next week, I have just been to get some petrol here in Liverpool & the panic buying has already started, I saw one guy with jerry cans in his boot to, fill up now & avoid a possible rush!

Good grief not more tard buying. The only reason there was no petrol last time was because losers bought it all and hoarded it!!
Now the army have powers to break up and protest anyway. The only reason we are going to have a problem with petrol is because some losers are stock piling it all in cans!!
Grrrrrrrrr

ya know one time I can remember buying petrol to stock up as there was a shortage. Never ever used any of the stock petrol.
Why bother, if you run out, you will be in the same boat as everyone else.
It will be a bigger problem for the government there the ones who will miss all the excise.

Hey I always carry a fuel can in the back, as my van tank is so small!

I know that feeling with the pickup. I usually get about 15-20 quid worth in.

Well its better to get it while you can & be first in the line, I have bad memories of the last fuel blockade, waiting in long lines with people being aggressive to get to the pumps only to find the pumps had run dry, I hope it does not come to this but its worth filling up just to be safe.

Did you have a good look at there web site
"Not all vehicles run on petrol or diesel, so at Petrol Direct we are pleased to be able to offer you a variety of different types of fuel for more specialist applications."
Plutonium
Particularly useful for some models of DeLorean sports cars, we can souce Plutonium in both Pu-238 and Pu-239 isotopes (Pu-239 is limited to
9 kilograms per customer).
Plutonium Antimatter
Traditionally suited to deep range space craft, it is actually possible now to fit a compact matter-antimatter annihilation chamber into most larger cars and trucks. Typically, just a few grams of antimatter will be enough to power your car for life.
Antimatter Crystal Energy
The healing power of crystals has been known for some time - new research shows that they can be used as a source of automotive power too.

There was never a problem. Just the media winding people up and causing an unnecessary panic. No problems getting up and down to Goodwood on all three days. Best time 1hr 15mins from just west of Reading (Norcot), where I filled up Saturday and Sunday mornings at
06.30 without seeing a soul.
