... I think the country is going mad.
With people at work reckoning that petrol stations in Bishops Stortford (where I work) are already running out (how true this is I don't know. And the huge queues I saw myself last night in the town where I live (Braintree) everyone seems to be panic buying.
Why? Surely things aren't going to get as bad as they were 5 years ago when even buses and ambulances were starting to run out - no one wants to see that again.
What do they expect the government to do? If they reduce the tax on petrol, then something else will have to go up to make up the difference.
I don't understand about the whole OPEC thing though, I read that they were going to be asked to up production - which gives the impression they're not running at full capacity at the moment - why not? Or are they content to sit there and collect the the 60+ dollars a barrel or whatever it is now.

I wish I didn't - but public transport from where I live to where I work isn't really an option.
I quite liked it last time.
I was just a young lad but liked the fact everything came to a stop.

Overcrowding of trains really annoyed me last time.
Apart from that, doesn't really affect me

Not especially. Jost wondered why everyone else was really.

That'll be nice and handy, seeing as I live on a first floor flat. I guess I'd need a sizeable extension lead to charge it up.

Yes, do that.
Hopefully we'll all regress back to using horse and carriage, four bob a go.
Most of the petrol stations around Nottingham are shut for petrol which I assume means they've run out or can't be bothered with the stupid panic buyers.
