Lots of queue's at a lot of stations and heard some have run dry. (midlands)

Is this being repeated all around the country.

Need some for Oulton tomorrow hope theres some left for me.

Yep, like that down here in Dorset. Took ages to find somewhere to put a bit in the car since it was running on vapour!

Monster needs filling, 916 has over half a tank left.

If you're at Oulton there's a shell at the junction with the A556 and another unknown fuel station just the other side of Oulton

Will need a list of all stations in the local area, Dont mind not being able to get fuel to get to work

, but not being able to get some for a track day is a different matter

Were is this unknow station, might be useful for tomorrow.

Carn't think of one after Whitchurch there must be one, never noticed on sunday when i went for bsb.

If you come out of the circuit and back to the main road, right take you back up to the A556 and the shell garage, turning left you'll see the petrol station in the distance on the left hand side

Ran it till petrol light came on yesterday then called in M6 Lymm station on way home.
Geezer on a gsx was also on empty and there was about a 15 minute queue.
Saw one numpty in an X5 filling plastic barrels in his boot.
Panic buying? Yep, rsoles.

Bleedin 4x4 drivers, most properly making sure he's got enough for the school run

Wonder if it's ever been off road, mounting the curb outside the takeway is the nearest i bet.

Says the man with the Ducati that probably hasn't been near a track...

The point being that just as you can buy any motorcycle you like, they can buy any car they like. Get over it.

BTW, petrol is 91.9 at our local supermarket and there wasn't much of a queue this morning either.
