Thanks - but which Act of Parliament is that? I can't seem to find any reference to it on the web?
I've read that you can store up to 30 litres at home - if you wish to hold more then you need to register or license or something.
Just to add to my original post - I'm not taking the fuel home, it is stored in a metal shipping container at my small holding.
When I worked in the motor trade circa 25 years ago the company that I was employed by also had petrol forecourts, though I had no responsibility for them. But what I did know was the signage you see at petrol forecourts saying not to use mobile phones or radios is a statutory notice (i.e. it's a legal requirement to display them) and it is a criminal offence - but strangely that's never referenced on the notices.
