Please don't panic buy.
royhall:
Just heard on the radio a government Johnny telling us not to panic buy fuel because the problem is just a tiny handful of petrol stations that have run out.
Five minutes later I drove past a petrol station with a line of cars waiting that stretched for about 500 yards. On passing the line I noted that about three quarters of the drivers were pensioners.
So soon the people that need a vehicle for work won't be able to get fuel whilst pensioners cars sit at home with full tanks.
I'm sorry but what a bunch of selfish me me me pigs.

It's the WW2 black market mentality at work - assuming that you didn't spot it was OAP giro day.

Yeah that figures... :-\
Frankly, I too can't wait to retire, so I can get up at 6AM and drive around real slow to make everyone late for work... :o
(I'm running HAVC service calls, and I'm on the edge with all those daytime leisure lock down zombies toddling around... >:( )

When will the news media understand they can't tell stupid people not to panic buy without starting a free for all.

Our local BP station has sold out and shut!
Wasn't going to top up honest guv - just drove the gaffer for an appointment.
