hello
haven't the faintest idea what all the fuss is about, i dont watch the news, read newspapers or do social media...
so went out on the bike to scrub the new tyres in, passed numerous fuel stations..no queues no dramas, no panic buying...
maybe its just an English thing ? put me army bergen on and wandered to the supermarket for the weekly shop..shelves fully stocked..
" OH I DO LIKE TO BE BY THE SEASIDE..." all join in now...

Where the brass band plays Tiddley Pom Pom Pom.

You are probably most correct Sir Richard, the media is blowing this out of all proportions and scaremongering, working in the garage this evening I heard the news stating the usual crap about fuel in short supply, queues etc, however needing a few beers I nipped out to the local fuel establishment to find no customers, empty forecourt and easy access to the fridge of joy, I can only deduce from this that the media has there own agenda to report bullshit in order increase traffic, and therefore profit, to there own shitty little websites of celebrity fookwittery and politically correct nonsense, impartial news is gone, the minority shit stirrers are in charge, common sense and logic are to be frowned upon, how dare we speak the truth.
Sad times indeed.

And what I was saying the other morning before I was rudely awakened by the dustmen was:
There has been an excess supply since Covid……and the fuel companies needed a way of getting rid. But now I’m hearing that the HGV driver shortage is also the most likely scenario?
Who bloody knows for sure…

Fuel supplies were fine until the scaremongering fookwits started spouting shite, and of course the great British bog roll hording masses ignored everything and fucked everything in their quest for eternal selfishness, me me me, and two fingers to everyone else, the fuel companies don't give a shit either, excess supply to get rid of? lower the prices then, not likely, bastards 🤨
At least the garage swear box is nearly full 😄

Absolutely bored with this fuel crap now. Let's flood this positive and forward thinking forum with images of our classics. I just took some of my current bikes (and project) 2 mins ago, hopefully it will bring some joy to at least one member...STAY POSITIVE AND DO NOT LET ANYONE GRIND YOU DOWN.
