I hope there aren’t too many casualties from this.
They say that there won’t be any fuel shortages, but Bath is nearly dry. There isn’t really any panic buying either – the petrol stations all have big signs by the entrances saying “NO FUEL – SHOP OPEN”. Maybe they just didn’t carry much. I’d been running my car down (as I do once every so often) and I was pretty dry – only a few litres left, right into the red. I eventually got some fuel at Sainsbury’s, but they’d run out of standard unleaded and only had super unleaded – fine with me. I got all the fuel I needed.
Looks like there’s going to be a major shortage for a while in my area, and a big price hike. I don’t know how much more people can afford.

Looks like it wasn’t terrorism. Hopefully the price rise won’t be too drastic. So much dependency on oil has got to change, it has too much of an effect on economies.
Has anyone phoned into a live TV or radio news show and blamed the explosion on one of Howard Stern’s farts yet?
