Off to Poole tomorrow, where to get fuel?

I am popping over the Channel tomorrow (Tuesday the 15th) to run a few errands.

Where is the best place to get petrol from in winter?

Salterns also sell both fuels, though no where in Poole is cheap.

David (Avocet) could probably direct you to the best location.

Cheers Steve, I had thought Salterns High Class Purveyor of Marine Services to The Gentle Folk Of Dorset, by App. might be the best bet.

Maybe I will just carry lots of duty free with me for the return trip.

There's a Texaco about 6 mins walk from Salterns. But if you can I'd bring some home brew with you!

I bet the Texaco charges more than 65p

Home brew sounds better by the minute.
