Fear and panic

[Hank]

Well I got a bit confused with all that's going on in the news and ended up panic buying pasties. Could be worse.

Indeed. I'm about to try drive to Bristol on a tank full of Greggs' steak bakes.

tesco glossop was having a delivery of petrol when I passed by last night about 8.45pm, and the Esso just up on the A57 heading out of town wasn't empty either. petrol station top of mottram moor (after you've got off the M67 heading to glossop) also had fuel. of course that was last night. hysteria of the waking dead probably means they've been drained dry already.

Managed to get some in Bredbury last night at 8:00. Still had to queue for 25 mins for one of the 2 of 10 pumps that had any.

As we are about to go on Holiday to Holland and Germany ,we didn't have enough fuel to get to France and all because there was not a strike is a amazing achievement by some very poor advice from the UK government such as filling up fuel canisters to store at home etc, nappy state wins again, in fact the only winner is the exchequer who managed to swell its revenue just before the books close on the year end, we managed to find fuel without a queue today so issue over but again we feel for the people who have been impacted by this.

Just make sure you keep some spares in a plastic container smaller than 5 litres

Pasties have gone up by 2p a litre. Typical. None left at the local 24 hour Asda.

Today I'm responding to the panic by hitching a lift with the girlfriend who just happens to be working in the Trossachs. WE all have to compromise in these fear riven times.
