Default 99 Ron - any around?

Any available? V-Power or Momentum?

My local two Shells are out of super and V-Power (Hagley Cross Keys, and Stourbridge Oldswinford), and Tesco Kidderminster only has regular

What's it come to eh?

You got me a puppy

Been looking for a while, and found some in Hereford. Didn't like the look of them so got a Hereford Times and pressed on - to Hay, where I found this little girl. Pick her up Monday

Thanks

I wonder if I'll be thinking the same in a couple of weeks after several hundred weight of poo and pee Hope so

Yes, quite a spin out and around in the finish. Nice test for my new tyres Quite pleased with the wet performance (PS2's)

Interestingly, there was just one pump with Momentum on at Tesco's. When I asked I was told these was 2000 litres left in the tank, and they shut it off when there's 1000 left

I asked at my local Shell when the next V-Power's in - a slightly, how can I say dippy girl said (Black Country accent) oh, we don't know when it's coming, we just a text message to say it's almost here...

TBF to her, it's probably some mad anti-terror procedure that even they have no idea

Hopefully it'll all be sorted by the weekend. I'm hoping to get mine on the rollers next weekend so don't want to use crap fuel as a stop gap.

I heard efforts are towards replenishing regular, and V-Power could be another week, even two to get back to normal
