I certainly am considering charging to drive out long distances just to 'quote' or 'look at jobs'

From what I can make out it isn't really happening in other parts of the country at the moment but here in Cornwall a lot of people [idiots] seem to be panic buying fuel including filling extra cans ! And in places queues spill out onto roads holding up traffic,and some fuel stations close due to running out until the next delivery.
I'm assuming it's the fear/obsession of rising prices and driven by the Social Media cretins, it's very frustrating when you really need fuel to continue working.

IMO we should have limits at the pump to stop lunatics panic buying

 

[Dave OCD]

Exactly that ! And no additional containers.
