:shock:

So is anyone else panic buying at the pumps north (or slightly south) of the border?

I filled up my car a couple of days ago and as I was sitting in the queue was dismayed at the lack of panic, a few toots of the horn and a bit of a jumping the line with high revs soon sorted that out!
:lol:

Good point!
I'll head down the market in the morning and stock up on the rice before the price rockets out of control, best get myself a few crates of beer too before I have to start walking to the shops!

Oh man, I really hope the petrol runs out, working from home here I come!!

Get up, not bother showering, watch a bit of Jeremy Kyle, try to remotely log on to my computer, give up, a bit of lunch, watch Loose Women, successfully log on, send a couple of emails and finish early.

That'll do me!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
