colsoop Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Well for the first time in a long time i filled the old girl up. Popped along to my usual shell garage and the place was empty which is unusual, then i noticed the tags on all the pump. The only open pumps were, guess what ? V power I filled the car and to put in 64 litres it cost me £78 bargain Chatted to the lady inside and asked if people had been panic buying and suprise suprise they had I assume it is just the shell stations that are running dry ?

hoff Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Not just shell Col. There are a few by me which are dry. All down to panic buying. It really winds me up:boxing: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiceRocket Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Honda have just released their hydrogen car. Seems a good idea now. Once the supply network is in place it's a chance for the government to prove their "green" credentials by not applying any tax to hydrogen fuel.

SupraAyf Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY OPEC sells oil for $136.00 a barrel. OPEC nations buy U.S. grain at $7.00 a bushel. Solution: Sell grain for $136.00 a bushel. Can't buy it? Tough! Eat your oil! Ought to go well with a nice thick grilled filet of camel ass!!!

Swampy442 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 I saw that mate, its scandalous, at least Dick Turpin wore a mask. But whats worse, people were buying it. And I doubt we will ever see the days of sub quid a litre fuel again regardless of oil prices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
