Don't wish to be alarmist but the gap between ordering Red Diesel and actual delivery is widening (and the price has increased just for good measure. ) Think ahead if you are needing to top up your tanks. I ordered today and was told it COULD be up to 4 weeks before I got it.
are they having a laugh , glad we filled everything last week.

Ordered monday, delivered tuesday!
 
I wouldn’t mind a fair sized bet that most of the fecktard twunts causing long queues at garages are just brimming their tanks with a few litres every other day.

I was at a hauliers yard earlier and the postman dropped in. Said he had filled up round the corner, no bother early that morning. I drove past an hour later, empty forecourt. I was on a quarter tank so dropped in. Bloke said on Monday you couldn’t move down the whole road. Today, hardly a car.

I spoke to the local fuel tanker driver on Tuesday and his work was mostly topping up domestic tanks apart from shifts to refuel their own filling station. Customers were over ordering. (1000l and he wa only getting 500l in) My tank was the only empty one that day. Sixteen drops on his round that day:oops:
