We just had to get some fuel, but we only put £20 in! The bloke in front of us filled his people carrier and then 3 jerry cans!!!

Has the strike even been confirmed yet?

Sooo annoying,my car broke down on Sunday so I havent needed or been able to get petrol,I do have petrol in my tank but we were hoping to go on a day trip over Easter weekend,seems unlikely if no garages are going to be selling petrol

Didnt this happen before,but nothing ever came of it

so are the people not actually on strike yet? it's just the public going OTT as usual.
people are putting on facebook already about what petrol stations are out of fuel in our area. such a joke!

no striking date has been confirmed.
so for all we know it might be in 3-4 weeks or never at all.
they are trianing the army on how to deliver fuel. xx

its actually rediculous that people are panic buying fuel today

even if there is strike action it wont be for well over a week, by which time all the fuel people buy today will be used, they will need more, and the garages will be dry

The queues were crazy today. I had to put petrol in my car because I normally fill it at the end of the month and was almost empty, had to wait for 40 minutes to get petrol and one of the petrol stations was sold out of unleaded! xx

Ridiculous! I had to go fill up today because we were close to empty, it was busy at tesco, they had a maximum fill up limit of £56 there.
