Have the miners in Australia all gone back to Derbyshire?If he can get it to India, then he will make a killing.. apparently power plants being shut down due to lack of coal.
I doubt it. All that has happened is that the irregular/panic buying has stopped. The shortage of tanker and HGV drivers, that we all know about now, will not have been sorted in 10 days. Seems like some of the UKs JIT supply chains are not very resilient and, as a result of permanently operating close to tipping point, are subject to failure given relatively small changes in supply or demand.Back to normal here. I guess the Brexit issues blamed for this have been solved in 10 days.
Could be just a groundsman / gardener filling his Jerry for the mower!My most local station has sold out again (has diesel only remaining). I went to another nearby station though and got in straight away, no queues. However, as I said in random irritations, whoever was there before me only bought £6 worth of petrol so I guess people are still panicking. ??

Woman in front of us yesterday pulled up by the pump and didn’t get any fuel she just went into the shop for some milk.
There is a massive car park on the site ( Tesco )
A few people waiting behind us let her know what they thought.
No a beat up old Fiesta.Let me guess.. she driving a BMW or an Audi..

Our local counsellor sent this in response to lack of garden waste collection …
There is no green bin collection this week. Our reduced winter service plan is aiming for one more collection before Christmas, probably in November, one more in late January, prior to, fingers crossed, the service restarting properly late spring. We will be giving sufficient notice to residents when a collection will occur.
At the moment, a potential impact is whether there will be sufficient gritting drivers available this winter. If not, the green waste may be sacrificed to help out there. That's a logical thing to do as without gritted roads, we can't get any bins lorries (black, blue, green or food) out safely.
On a positive note, there are almost double digit trainees going through the intensive driving academy which does give us some confidence that next spring we'll get it back to normal.

Hopefully it will all be fine soon

Do you have a local council tip?Our garden bins haven’t been emptied since the beginning of August. They’ve arranged a one of collection on Monday to empty the bins. I’m hoping their trucks are up to the job as our bin (as I suspect most are) weighs a ton!!
