Letter: Selfish Behaviour At the Fuel Pump Annoys Me

In response to: Across the Borough a Similar Story – If There’s No Queue, There’s No Petrol

Whilst in the queue to try to get petrol for my car (needed for work, my low-fuel warning light was on so the visit was warranted) at the Shell garage by the fire station on Ladymead earlier today (September 28), I was irked to see the older gent in front of me proceed to put over £50s’ worth into his car, and then produce five jerrycans and fill them too.

Why isn’t there a cap initiated on how much non-work vehicles can have? I resisted the urge to fill the tank, instead only putting £25s’ worth in, but it does annoy me to see others being so selfish.

First, we had the loo rolls saga, now fuel. I’m afraid to ask what next?
