Just read an article that is warning of an upcoming petrol tanker strike...

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up so that we can all still have our fun over the Easter break.

Maybe a jerry can filling spree is in order...just in case..

It'll be fine, the government are drafting the army. God forbid people protest in a way that will cause disruption for them. By filling up Jerry cans etc aren't we just circumventing the whole point of the protest?

..as opposed to sitting at home on a day like today...agreeing with the protest but missing out on our bank holiday rides...hmm..I understand what you mean..but putting it into practice is oh so difficult when there's a day off...a bike...and 2 moors..

I have to Work all over bank holiday weekend so no bike fun for me.

I might fill a jerry can though and auction it off on monday

i'll be fine as my car runs on diesel and the diesel tanker drivers aren't going out on strike as far as i know.

jerry can wont help me,i'm supposed to be doing a trackday @ anglesey,and already no diesel at tesco or sainsburys

I got email today from one our fuel suppliers advising of the strike from 4th April which is looking to last about a week but it could be longer. Work have asked me to top up our fuel tanks at work and my supplier had to check that they could deliver the quantity I was asking for
