I just filled up my car but started off at Pollock Tesco which had shut its petrol station, then drove to the nearby Shell which only had diesel then onto Morrisons which only had half of its pumps giving out unleaded and the others were empty. Anybody know whats going on? Is it just because its 92.9p or something else?

Way home yesterday evening I did the usual weekly dive off the M77 in to Tesco Pollock to be greeted by cones across the entrance to the forecourt. There was a Tesco staffer standing by them but I couldnt be arsed asking about why it was shut (didnt really care tbh).

Back on the M77, off at the next junction, in to Asda Govan, 91.9p (1p/litre cheaper ) and filled up. Also experienced my first drive through petrol station. not just cards at the pumps, literally no walk in shop and you drive to the kiosk. Interesting.

the petrol all seems to be back to normal now but down to 91.9p maybe the tanker got lost
