Maybe instead of just upping production or cutting prices, Zapetero could encourage the sale of biodiesel for heating…its impossible to buy here in Asturias for home use…unless anyone knows otherwise..
The strikes have not got to us yet, and when they do no doubt they will not only be blocking the roads but setting fire to them as well…at least thats what happened in the last lot of major strikes…
Is this the season for strikes as so far we have had…the judicial staff…that went on for several months and at the offices they would only deal with a set number of enquiries a day…
The ayuntamiento..still striking…
Drs…don´t want to work afternoons…
Will we be returning to 1973 soon..not that I remember that!!

I was going to chance leaving filling until tonight but didnt dare! Marbella stations only had petrol, diesel finished!!
Might have to hire a donkey at this rate!
I live in La Nucia a village about 6 miles , north of Benidorm. No diesel left, went into the Mercadona next door looked as if looters had ransacked the place , no fruit ,no veg, no fish, some meat but still plenty of booze.
The girl on the till reckons the way things are going they will have nothing to sell tomorrow. -

Barcelona.
Some shortages of petrol / diesel.
Went to the fresh food market and supermarket this morning. Plenty of everything, felt like a normal day, very calm. Pissed down with rain.
It was the first time I had been shopping in a while. I was shocked by the prices. What is much more serious than a temporary transport strike is how expensive Spain has become.

Repsol behind Cabopino has all types of petrol and diesel. You can’t see it from the N340 hence I don’t think it has been mobbed so much.
Meat? Buy a gun then go out and shoot a rabbit. Tastes like chicken.
Shellfish? Use your hands and dig for free clams on the sand-banks just off Elviria Beach (opposite Beach House restaurant).
Octopus? Put a frozen or tinned prawn (yes, still penty of those in the supermarket) on the end of your fishing line and chuck it into the water on beach as per above.
Sea bass? Buy from the restaurant in Marbella fishing port where the fish farm is.
Herbs, avocados, lemons, plums? Go into the campo and look around you or go on tour with an estate agent and ask them to only show you empty villas with fruit trees in the garden then pick some on the sly, ho ho.
Tomatos and chillis? My garden and Dad’s roof terrace! If anyone local wants some then PM me.
Anything foodwise? Ask your local friendly restaurant to sell you some at an extortionate price. Cars instead of lorries are coming in daily with fresh produce from Almeria and Portugal to keep this vital business going.…Oh all right then, I did by a tin of beans in Mercadona this morning tho. Must have been that english blood in me wanting to panic buy!
Or sod it, just eat out every night.

I didnt look too closely but I couldnt see any tape around the pump at all and someone was filling.
Im a petrol head so lucky in that score but my freind in Fuengy filled up at the BP on the mijas road and she is a diesel.
The thoughts are BP are getting their supplies in the fastest. Possibly E;l Saladillo is ok but cant swear to it.
