There's a lot of doom and gloom around when it comes to LPG but I just want to mention I topped up today at Morrisons in Kilmarnock, I asked about The LPG situation, the girl said they just had the tank replaced a month ago. Sounds good to me😀

This one:

Texaco
Hinton Service Station
Lyndhurst Road, Christchurch BH23 5LA

...has been decommissioned this week.
I phoned them up and was told that head office had said it's no longer viable.

Another one bites the dust along the south coast.

Morrisons at Kings Lynn, Wisbech, and Spalding appear to be in it for the long haul too. (y)

Last time I visited Morrison's in ipswich, was told they were replacing LPG pump for electric charger. No idea if this happened or if LPG still available there??

Sittingbourne Morrisons is a good one if you’re on your way to Canterbury from the North. A slight deviation off the route but worth it. 99.9p a litre last Sunday.

We live East of Maidstone and fill up at Parkfoot Garage and convenience Store, an independent petrol station / combined supermarket on the A20 at 265 London Road, West Malling (West of Maidstone).

94.9p this week.

5 minutes off the M20, so very convenient when heading to Dover and has great fresh produce and bakery along with the usual supermarket fare.

Morrisons Holmfirth LPG is out of action. They say they need to dig up the forecourt to repair it. And that it will take ages. Still, if they are going ahead with that, it’s a good sign.

If I remember correctly the idiots that sparked all the unnecessary panic and damage to the relatively small leisure LPG market were predicting that there would be no more LPG by 2024 , in fact one actually stated that there was only 1 year left 🤬
MFG did announce that they were removing LPG pumps from all their forecourts by 2024 back in 2022 , but as they only operated around 57 stations with LPG at the time it wasn’t really significant unlike when BP withdrew from the LPG market in 2015/16 and Shell with their joint venture with Calor trading as Autogas that was wound up in 2020 I believe.
unfortunately it wasn’t just ill informed YouTube muppets that made sweeping statements but some journalists who were seeking sensationalist headlines joined in too 🤬😡
There is absolutely no doubt that LPG has become a much more niche market than it once was , but with approximately 200,000 domestic properties using it for heating and cooking etc there is no need to panic at all , in fact there seems to be a few more independent outlets appearing and as stated MFG seem to be keeping it in most Morrisons now 👍

There was a was a 3 car queue at Morrisons Sittingbourne when I called in last Sunday, on my way for a stopover in Canterbury for the ferry on Monday. So there’s obviously some demand.
