Yeh, not been handled well at all. Mate over there reckons panic buying has made it twice as bad. People that didn't need to fill up went and filled up due to the panic, caused an acute shortage crisis, and now they are trying to catch up.
There is enough fuel, just can't get it to the bowsers quick enough, because panic buyers are emptying the stations. Some stations have imposed a 30 quid limit.
