SilverSoop Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Ok round here but the nearest Shell station is 10-12miles away from me. Doesn't the Shell deliveries resume on Tuesday? I think so but they are on about striking AGAIN on friday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiceRocket Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Anyway, £120.9 is good! Im currently paying £123.9 and that went up 2p in a week! :faint::faint: And you're moaning about 2 pence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Pffft, permies attitude! You'd not be saying that if you were contracting there, would you matey? Poor contractors, get paid a shed load of money compared to normal folk, then when the pinch sets in they expect the same graces, as far as I'm concerned , you go contracting, you get big money, you takes your chances, don't come crying to me when you take a day off & don't get paid for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivan Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Popped out to Tesco this afternoon and filled up. All normal - you wouldn't think there's a panic on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_blackman Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 I put £25 quid in the supra earlier, should last me 2-3 weeks as I don't use the Supra much nowa days lol... I went straight to a pump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keancy Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Managed to Fill mine up Friday afternoon, but had to get unleaded as the Shell I normally get my V-Power from had run out midweek (nothing to do with Strikes tho, just coincidence) and are not expecting anymore till next week I only fill up every two weeks so I am good to go for a while now.

Pete Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Our local rag is doing their bit to fuel the panic. Apparently we're running dry in Telford. Fuel running out at pumps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Headroom Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Its funny that world oil consumtion has gone down! The prices we pay are being driven up by speculators on the money markets. Nothing to do with market forces!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaymdee Posted June 15, 2008 Author Share Posted June 15, 2008 Did a few off rd miles today, got on the rd near Swindon to fill up and the first station was empty and we was on vapours, got some directions from a local for another station and run out of petrol on the way, luckly for us a very nice AA man we waved down sorted us out with some fuel and we made it to the next town:) Lucky for you there Jamie. Got the MR2 filled up at Sainsbury's with 95RON, so will use that tomorrow. Am off all week in a works hire car, so we'll see how I get on on that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 no problems with the BP garages round here at all, filled up the MR2 and the Vectra. They reported in the paper the other day that the truck drivers have been offered a pay deal that would bring them up to £39,000 per year. Whether thats true or not I dont know, but seems a fair wage for sitting on their arse, listening to Radio2 all day and making motorists life hell.
