A friend of ours went to Calor Southampton last week, got a refill £30 , and a new bottle that cost £40 deposit and gas £30, so £100 for the lot.Well, obviously still as rare as rocking horse poo. Go outdoors in Poole are showing virtually no gas in stock of any sort. My (very local) Calor premises are not even open despite the website stating otherwise. How can a a gas supply shop not be open ??? But for anyone local to a Poole, TPS on the Chalwyn Industrial estate have stock.
Just don’t rush up before I pick mine up this afternoon

Never had a problem, BP garages around here have put in new pumps.Until you can't get them filled

At those prices from Calor, a refillable system install cost would soon be recovered
Makes you feel smug with refillables.
Wow daylight robberyA friend of ours went to Calor Southampton last week, got a refill £30 , and a new bottle that cost £40 deposit and gas £30, so £100 for the lot.
Yep, we use 100 - 150lt (50-75kg) a year.At those prices from Calor, a refillable system install cost would soon be recovered
Seriously we have no problem with Flogas as there is a big depot nearby. Calor disappeared ages ago, as did two LPG stations and the other two are considering removing their tanks. If they go the nearest will be about 20 miles. I've been trying to persuade the Flogas depot to install a tank but they are not interested

No problem in Europe,,We always fill up just before we get the ferry home,,BUSBY.
We always try to fill up in the UK then we know we have 100% propane.
I do carry a six kg propane bottle with me just for back up,,BUSBY.
Blimey at those prices 150 Lt would be around £320 against around £90 to £100 for LPG.
True, and I refilled at Morrisons last week, long may it continue.
I always imagined Autogas was a mix....here in Spain it is.....in the UK it's 100% Propane...is that so, I've learnt something new today..
Yer 100% in the UK other countries the mix varies due to time of year I think Spain is between 35 to 65% butane. I think Portugal is 95 or 100% propane.I always imagined Autogas was a mix....here in Spain it is.....in the UK it's 100% Propane...is that so, I've learnt something new today..
Where was that...... we have been finding it very expensive.
Well that's going to be very useful indeed...living near the Med but visiting high places could in future determine where I fill up....I have frequently used mixed gas cylinders in the Alps and other locations, sometimes sleeping with them in my sac...could be difficult with a Gaslow...
how much did you sell them for? I have three in my shed to get rid off. I see calor are offering £7.50 for them, but the depots are shut.
No wonder the cages for them at the tip are always empty these days.
