I went to the filling station just off the M6 junction near where I live and where I always go. I wasn't panic buying, my fuel gauge was on empty. Usually at 3 p.m. there are 2 or 3 cars there but today there was a queue of cars waiting to get in. I only waited about 5 minutes but there are 15 pumps there.

I asked the woman on the till if it had been the same all day. She said it had been the same since Friday and some people were only able to fit a few litres in their tanks but were still determined to fill up. Crazy or what?
