Just cancelled a club site for next week. Entirely due to the fuel situation but not a choice on reason given. Why not add Other and a box to write in?   Came back from holiday on Friday and have 150 miles in tank so unless I can refill this week I won't have enough.  I've seen in the news that nurses, doctors and teachers can't get to work this morning because of the panic buying , I don't want that on my conscience.

Even more fun when the pump is calbrated in litres and you want to purches a round number of gallons!

Me too, lots of £60:01 for example and very few £60:00. I think it's a trick built into the pumps.

The filling station we used a few days ago had a limit of £35 and the pump stoped dead on that automatically. When I went to pay the attendant, presumably thinking that wasn’t much for a MH, said if you want to you are welcome to put more in and reset the pump.

Just a reflection…

In days long since past I was a petrol pump attendant at weekends. Nobody would dream of serving themselves. Even then I recall supply shortages and coupons. I had to turn away anybody but locals and account holders - that created some heated arguments! Rises in fuel duty were usually announced several hours before implementation and sparked the same kind of panic buying that we see today. Plus sa change!

Bill is using the shortened form; much as we might say 'it walks like a duck' rather than the full phrase
