Off to vanbitz but my regular late stop for gas at Halton hill Exeter has run out, anyone know if there’s any around Taunton?
 
There is a big Sainsburys station close to the M5 junction, I know they have a lpg pump, but whether they have any? May be worth giving them a call.

Heading Yorkshire post vanbitz, going to have a good look on the app & hopefully get some upcountry, 2nd fail safe is always Morrisons in Barnsley

Morrisons, Cribbs Causeway,
Possibly a second choice but they ain't had any forever is Asda, Cribbs

Thanks Derek, give it a go, glad you started the thread on electric hobs, whilst I didn’t follow your advice ((saved £4!!), very pleased I got one yesterday as my gas situation is dire

Thanks guys for all your kind comments, there’s lots of options up the line so I’m not concerned, more about my dinner getting cold, wish you all a good evening

They have gas at Vanbitz, not sure if they sell it to campers though.

Filllpg is showing Texaco Thornfalcon Garage A378 TA3 5NN as having lpg updated 02/04/2022. MyLPG.eu is still showing it as out but as usual hasn’t been updated recently, 11/03/2022.


Filllpg Map is slow to load but is usually up to date unlike the quicker MyLPG app which has let me down too often to be trusted.

Thanks for looking Pausim, Had a detour there on way, I’ve spotted the red you put up. But they’ve not had any for weeks so I’m unsure how to change the ref.
Spoke to a couple of local garages around Taunton (Morrisons & the one you mentioned) and also the one on Haldon hill, Exeter, they’ve apparently not had any for yonks, so if your heading this way from somewhere there’s supplies, get it while & where you can.
If your staying on site, have solar, or a good inverter/battery bank, may I recommend you get a induction hob (see Emmit thread), should you not already have one.

I will need some for Easter !
Annie,

If you have a gaslow bottle that you can remove from your van, Andys Gas at Cribbs causeway will refill it for you overnight. They do not offer at the pump service at the moment. They donot open until midday so go there to early.

This state of affairs is quite worrying. I last filled up at Sainsbury's, Taunton, and should be ok for awhile. Is this as a result of a national shortage due to Russia and Covid? Must be, I guess. So it will continue. I do still have a full 5kg Calor, which I was just going to put on our Classified, but I will hang on to it. Can you connect this to the van filling point in some way, or add an external BBQ type connection? I've not thought this through.

Riverbankannie martindevon as promised current lpg status at cribbs causeway.


ASDA no lpg
Morrisons have lpg 🥳🥳

So I suggest you get to Cribbs this morning Annie to be sure of getting some.
Thanks very much, that’s kind of you to look, soon as vanbitz have done the job on big Rachael I will head that way, currently enjoying a ‘spoons breakfast in town, it’s ok if you were curious
