Tanker drivers reject deal, but say one is within reach - BBC News …
… that’s pretty much all it will take. Tanker drivers reject deal. Had to fill up £150 at a time at stations where I could fit under the car canopy last time they panicked. All because they have to drive little Tarquin and Elanor in a 4x4 to their private school 1 mile away.
Panic buyers. They should be ashamed of themselves.
Well you can’t accuse me of panic buying, I rushed out and filled up this morning, and my jerrycans.
So I can honestly say I didn’t contribute to it. 
My mate paddy’s been panic buying diesel.
So far he’s got 4 new shirts, 6 pairs 'a jeans and a bottle of aftershave.
they’ve rejected the proposal, but will not be going on strike. 
that means:
the proposal has been rejected by our members, we are not going to do anything about it. however there are some conditions to this.
the senior members of our union, and some of our hangers on and cronies would like several weeks of all expenses paid “talks”. due to the climate in the UK, these will have to be in 5 star hotels in some of the richest oil producing gulf states.
There was a dyslexic bloke at the garage today with an arm full of sandwiches, he was picnic buying.

Just make sure you dont do what some stupid bint did the other week.
Decanting it into another container in her kitchen with the hob of a gas cooker turned on. I kid you not.
You can probably guess the outcome.
Never bought a panic in me life. what do they taste like?

Panic buying did good things for the economy
UK retail sales recorded their biggest monthly rise in more than a year in March, driven by the spell of warm weather and panic buying of petrol.
filled up my car at morros the other day and the bloke said the panic buyers had been out.

I’ve got a mate who is dyslexic, he went to the Winter Olympics last year.
He met a bloke in his hotel bar and asked him “What do you do?”
The bloke said “I’m a tobogganist”.
“Great!” said my mate. “I’ll have 20 Benson & Hedges please”.
I stopped for a coffee at a garage on the A2 , and there was a HOYER tanker driver there training a couple of army men (and a tasty blonde too). I think it’s a bit strange that the drivers who are supposed to be going on strike are training the people who will do their job when they’re sat at home, or whatever you do when you’re on strike.
I took some photos of them and they didn’t look very happy about it. Some of them were wearing hardhats, which I suppose is good in case a bit of petrol falls on their head…
