Just pumped out all the Esso Supreme from my MG TF, filled the bike and a 5 litre can, as tank is about 8 litres, however van only has enough Diesel to get to the rally, hopefully local Shell will still have some on Wednesday.

Alan, my recollection is that there was no shortage apart from cash flow problem for Tate & Lyle. I dislike queuing, stopped taking sugar in tea etc. and never re-started taking it.

I expect Dudley will have plenty spare in his bike as he usually only manages about 400yds on the runs. ;)
