There is plenty of fuel available around here at the moment - although at a price. When there were problems, the worst that happened here was a restriction on the amount per car (40€).
Hi Termie,
Thanks for the 'on the spot' info re fuel, fishermen, farmers, truckers ..... (oh hell, the whole of the French population! ) and their revolting ways.
Don't seem to get much detail on this side of the channel, so never sure what the effects are, your 'reports' are invaluable.
Seem to recall hearing somewhere that during the worst of the fuel crisis that filling Jerry cans at petrol stations was prohibited, what is the situation now? (we need petrol for the genny and it only has a little tank, so dragging it off to the petrol station every refill is not a realistic option!).
And before anyone suggests the following:
1) Siphoning some out of the car. It's a DIESEL Land Rover and we need PETROL (not that I'm going to rub this point in with one of OUR party who suggested it AND also just happens to own the LR! [it's OK MARTIN, I won't mention your name

)
2) Filling the Jerry in the UK. The ferry company (LD Lines) specifically ban cans of fuel (OK, we don't give a toss about their rules, but we will need to refill it during our stay regardless), AND none of us much fancy sharing the LR cab with a stinking 5 Gal tin of petrol for about 6 hours!
