    Certainly not my local independent.  I just checked and he can deliver me 1000 litres next week.
  • There is a nationwide issue with supplies of LPG both due to refinery supply, tankers running out of driving time waiting to be loaded as well as drivers Covid isolating.  This affects all LPG firms its just as with the beast from the east a few years back Calor get it in the neck as its the name folk know.  The "Hoover" effect, other vacuum cleaners are available.
  • it doesn’t look like the LPG situation will be sorted out for a while. 

    Yet another example of Brexit “taking back our jobs” having a negative effect on industries in the U.K. - it’s very difficult to get enough people who now want to drive lorries for a living plus refinery issues for LPG / tanker issues. Covid hasn’t helped with more people staying at home needing constant heating. 


  • With the oil companies making such huge profits, when does Calor Gas and the like report their profits?  It seem Calor's prices are always going up and never down and the service is as bad as ever. The big blue bottles are out of stock again according to their website. I wish I had an alternative to LPG but I don't.
