    Re: Petrol pump queues

    At 7:00am, I wandered over to Morrisons in Llanishen to get my racing paper and do a bit of shopping. The queue for the petrol station already stretched as far as Ty Glas Road. Incredible. We live in a nation full of morons, but in fairness that’s hardly news.

    Plenty of greedy bastards. The Petrol station should limit the amount people can buy.

    That is totally the wrong way to do it. They should do the opposite. People are topping up their tanks buying 5 and 10 pounds of petrol squeezing it in.
    they should say anyone going to a fuelling station must pay a minimum of £30 whatever fuel they put in their cars, so if the only have 10 litres they still have to pay £30. That will cut the queues by about 65% immediately.

    Too add a little bit of balance, there are those who just want to throw £20 in the tin, for the shopping, school run etc.
