Regarding the price of diesel, I read this morning on the BBC website that the UK gets almost one fifth of it’s diesel from Russia.  I didn’t realise it was such a high proportion and I guess it might be the reason for the recent price hikes (excluding profiteering of course!).

I put this on earlier, along with the fact that supplies are being restricted, think large steel boxes at war to where it might be going. Also the refineries are slowing production down I suspect as a bit of punishment to us all

Thanks Peter, I obviously missed it as I sometime skim over the posts and don’t always pick up on everything posted.

Yes

There is life in the North you know - but it is a bit different to the South.

That looks amazing could you moor your camper there as per the blurb on the website?

If so we might follow suit

Yes we stayed in the car park last night. 

 

Had breakfast there this morning as well and that was equally as good.

 Back on the subject of diesel.

 

Just called to refuel the van ready for our Easter break in North Norfolk and it clicked off at £99 before it was full 😕

 

(Not all used to go get a pie 🤣🤣🤣)

 

The chap in front of us put £10 in his car. He must have been going to Pump 1!

We have just purchased domestic diesel at £1.40. With apologies from the seller. Not their fault.

That’s a ‘nice’ sign. Saves you going in to ask. 

They have diesel again now

I ordered fuel yesterday, and it was a fair bit more per litre than the price on than the price website. Even Kerosense is more than that at the moment!

My tank is full, I won't be topping up for a while, how long is "a while"?

[jonathanA]

While it lasts of course 😀

 

I paid 1.30 for diesel from Derek on Ambush on Sunday.

If you are not planning to move then you will not use much - have you found another closure to spend the Summer in ?

I gave you a wave. 
I was the grumpy looking one priming up some wood. 
 

Think I’m fed up being in a shed while the weather’s good. 
 

Anyway, it’s 16p(ish) cheaper than it were on Monday.

It's perfectly normal where civilised people live

 

Although chips and curry sauce is better

If its gravy, it must be 'Onion Gravy' if not, then its got to be 'Fruity Curry sauce'

[frahkn]

Leaving aside price, is availability ok?

 

I ask because my marina (in Staffordshire) e-mailed me to say that they were limiting the amount each person could buy.

 

Admittedly, this was a few weeks ago but they haven't said the policy has changed.

I've had no problems so far, although Rick on the fuel boat did have delivery problems during the last fuel foolishness,  purely land based garages were showing some shortages a few weeks ago but I've not seen any recently.

I will give you the onion gravy but not the fruity curry sauce, that would almost put me off a good chippy

Great Haywood were getting a delivery this morning just before I filled up.  No mention of any supply issues or restricting what I could have.

Sileby Mill Boatyard yesterday £1.40/ litre domestic, recent delivery. I heard that  a little further down the Soar, Pilling's Lock Marina were charging the same.
