Petrol/Diesel prices near you

[Rudi McAnichal]

Filled up yesterday, car in front topped her tank up and filled a can. Less than £20. I suppose if you were going for the can then topping up makes sense? Maybe?

Beginning of the lawn-mowing season?

Same here for the tractor, digger, lawnmowers, chainsaws and quad - I look like I am hoarding but its all for machines at home!

You need to get a tank for Cherry…..I normally buy 40 litres for the quad when I go for fuel, fairly common in sheep farming areas. No one bats an eye lid round here.

It just seemed odd to me, but then topping a tank up with less than you put in the can is what I found odd, not filling the can

I need some diesel for my fergie tractor , but loath to take a can in at the moment , with everybody believing oh there s another one stocking up..think when I do it will be at 10pm on a rainy evening .

I normally fill 2 or 3 jerry cans at a time for the genny at the stables.

I do the same for my AFS110i Honda wave - fill 3.7l tank up and 5l can then top up.

My Honda Wave will average 130 ish mpg - but that is town stuff with one hill - thru the gears and me treating throttle like on/off switch (plus I no lightweight).

Reckon on constant steady flat run with no wind - 160+ mpg would be achievable. Or even more..?

This isn’t you I take it?

189.9 for diseasal in louth today, no ques or closed pumps, I think E10 was 155 ish

Prices have been stable here for the last few days, £1.53 for E10.

On Trumps latest news, its gone up again, only one left at 154 and heading for 160..

Strange Brent crude is way down.

Let's see how noisy about profiteering the petrol retailers association are then, they wouldnt shut up as prices rise the second oil went up

My post was before the announcement, when Trumpy was threatening nukes and to destroy a civililisation.

Markets have since dropped, but it will be a few weeks before the new prices get to the pumps, I imagine.

 

[ukracer]

Exactly what I did last Friday. The can was strategic, the top-up was tactical.
If anyone was watching and judging, they got two virtual fingers.
I'd I'd been deliberately hoarding it wouldn't have been a 10L jerry.

Mine was a gallon army can. I have l9ng since taken to doing what I want to do not what ANYONE else thinks i should be doing. My favourite response is simple (does this look like the face of concern) that soon shuts them up
.

This is my question and the question thousands of others will be asking

The prices went up instantly (I despise the term rocket and feather pricing) with many excuses about short term buying etc etc, it should not then take weeks for it to come down again

But it will

Fuel and energy prices go up like a rocket and come down like a parachute

 

[Turbo]

Talking to a garage franshise owner yesterday and he told me there was no restrictions in tanker deliverys...he orders and it comes in as normal, the pumps running dry is caused by "not normal sales" ...his words.

I was told that too.

As I said, that was not the case here, but you are up north so it may be quite different there. I was suprised and disapointed how slow they went up here, I went out and brimmed my tank and fuel can (for the saws/chipper) the day it started and could have waited two weeks!
