Unhappy Tanker driver strike - fuel shortage

OMG my local garages and supermarkets have got panic buyers already. Half of Sainsburys was coned off so a long queue to the petrol pumps could snake round the car parking. Naturally I timed it so Tigger was towing the trailer, which is never the most useful thing to be dragging when you're trying to squeeze in between the pumps with onloooking grumpy drivers... but it did save an extra trip to the waste tip, and I had extra room to chuck a couple of jerry cans in the back.

Is anyone else experiencing petrol chaos near them?

Filled the daily drive up, parked and covered it up until further notice. Cycling is the way forward, in Bath anyway!

Is this a snail message? I wonder how this is useful 11 months later?
