Panic buying started in Hertfordshire just seen it on the news 3 petrol stations shut already as they have run out of fuel

 

nob heads

 

Yep. Missus went out and came back in saying the petrol light was on. I told her to fill the fucker up.

She's headed off to the horse so I assume will get fuel in Stevenage. I assume she did it ok as I haven't had a phone call from her telling me I'm a cnut yet

 

yup, there queing round the block at most Amersham stations.

 

 

We really are a nation of fuuckwits...

All the advice on the news is dont panic buy..... so what do we do... panic buy.


Talk about a self fullfilling prophecy....


Good excuse for not going to work on monday and tuesday though..... sorry... got no petrol... everyone else in the office must have bought it

 

have i missed someit..why are they panic buying?

 

yep they have said on the news that there wont be a problem with the petrol but it dont matter how many time's they say it people will still panic buy

 

errrrrrrrr

Only the 5th biggest fuel distribution depot in the country in flames !

 

oh thats what that thing on the news was

 

now i KNOW its stupid, but im going to make sure i fill up today.

not because i think there's a fuel shortage, but because i think EVERY OTHER BASTARD IS GOING TO BUY ALL THE PETROL

i like to think i'm in the minority that HAS to buy at times like these, as a full tank of petrol in my car lasts me only 200 miles, so if i dont fill it up now, and i cant but petrol mid-week then i'm carless

its the stupid pratts who fill up their cars that never get driven (1 tank would last them about 3 months) that wind me up and the people who fill up containers etc? ARRRGH... CVNTS

 

will this affect the whole country or just nearish to where the plant was...am i gonna have to fill my car up now to get to work all week?? lol i live near romford in essex by the way

 

Shit.

Shocking news, it looks like some thing out of a film. Jeees

 

Jim....

The Buncefield depot ONLY supplies BEDS, HERTS & BUCKS


OTHER AREAS WILL BE UNAFFECTED as they are supplied by different depots..

 

oh sweet im gonna be able to get petrol next week then lol

 

Been told they are panic buying up here in the north east aswell, madness, the only affect it will have on up here is them having to supply those areas aswell. My friends boss (she works at a petrol station) said 'prefect reason to make the most of it and put the prices up'

 

Bet the next thing is they'll put the price up

You just wait and see. Hope i'm wrong tho.

 

neil, that doesnt matter, every stupid cvnt in the southeast is going to panic buy!

 

Too much stress in this country. If I cant get fuel ha. Day off then I guess.

 

Thing is, it's the AVIATION FUEL that's burning, not petrol

 

And BP, Esso, Texaco and Shell aren't even connected to the Total site thats currently alight

If theres a shortage of a commodity, then Yes it does

I saw that a Bakery had its windows blown out. Better get down Asda's sharpish and stock up on Pies and Cake incase theres a shortage...

 

How many actual depots are there in the country?

 

30 give or take AFAIK

This is the 5th largest. As Bernie* says mainly Aviation fuel and Kerosine.

* Thanks for the reply to my email the other day about "Impartial Advice" not sure if it was you or a colleague. But cheers

 

Oh the fucking pain.......................

 

PMSL @ Jim Genius

 

Glad i dont have to take the plane to work tommorow or i would be fooked..................


stupid muppets

 

 

Esso garages near me were out of fuel at lunchtime, I didnt think anything of it as I hadnt seen/heard the news... and tonight they were queing to get into an Esso in Stratford ...

 

ditto

 

Sometimes I think this country is the 51st state

one piece of bad new about oil, and everyones out panic buying.

"They say jump, you say how high" comes to mind

 

I got plenty of fuel to get me to work, and the RST has 3 1/4 tank, so i'll be alright for the Essex meet.
