Was closed from 7pm onwards last night.

This is 1 mile from Elms, so anyone travelling to see Gareth/Emma in the next week or so Id advise you to fill up on route.

The upside is of course that V Power and the other premium petrols will run out last.

Ps In theory at least

Strangely it's the V-Power stuff that's running out first :clown: here in Cambridge at least.
My local Shell in Trumpington is bone dry of the stuff just as my Cecil is going back on the road on Sunday :banghead: after 6 months hibernation.

No problems with supply here!

I am in Portugal for two weeks, mind!


It's my duty to prop up failing economies for the next fortnight.

People are creating a problem that does not actualy exist. The pumps are dry and the fuckers have not gone on strike yet.:banghead:, If people keep panic buying then it will cause an issue, and cost themselves money in the longrun.

And dont get me started on danger money, the average shell tanker driver is on £42k, how much is a fucking soldier who is dodging bullets, side stepping mines in afghanistan etc, getting per year... £20k. which job is more dangerous???

Just landed at Luton and limo driver said hat every fuel station in Welwyn was closed. We went past Esso in Harpenden (closed) and 3 in Welwyn, all sold out.

I might be staying at home at weekend rather than going to watch Lawsy at Silly or BTcC at Brands
