OCCI Remember where you read this first .I use to work the Docks still know a few heads .There will be Fuel Rationing by October we do not have any LNG storage so it too will be rationed for Electricity Generation .

Put October in your diary.  Or Not...

has anybody else felt compelled to carry a jerry can in the boot with the price of juice.
stick twenty notes in the tank and it's nothing.
got caught by the bollocks a couple of times and nearly ran owa fuel yesterday.
was collectin some bollocks from mick's garage near the fermot.
was already low on juice from swords when i went down the motorway.
says i better go to the petteriddle station first before mick's garage and i came off at the red cow but headed towards citywest insteada town. looped backa round and the low fuel light came on and fuel range on my screen was only 15 kilometers. not familiar at all with the place cause i'm a northside knacker.
was at the lights at the nass road and the kylemore road and the range dropped to 0 kilometers all of a sudden and the low fuel light started flashin. absolutely brickin it.
google maps told me i was right on toppa a circle k.
turned left and there was a station and i glided in and threw a nifty inta her.

Also, consider the dregs sucked up when allowing the tank to empty. Top up after every shift, you'll never be caught out on a JWT or long run.

It's more common than you think. A regular punter from the Glenamuck Road came home to find his winter supply drained by - as he suspected - local unsettled people.
