Yesterday’s Budget brought some good news for drivers across the UK, with fuel duty frozen until 1 July 2027.

The temporary 5p-per-litre cut stays in place, avoiding planned increases of 3p in January and another 2p in March.

That keeps petrol and diesel duty at 52.95p per litre. It doesn’t freeze prices at the pump, but it does avoid an extra tax increase each time you fill up.

It seems there's more to the story at Graveyard Gas...

The Grangemouth team have sent in some more Halloween shenanigans. Excellent effort from everyone at the depot 😂

Have you ever checked whether your heating oil tank is visible on Google Maps?

It’s something many people don’t think about, but satellite imagery can sometimes give a clear view of where a heating oil tank is positioned.

While most people would never look twice, exposed tanks can sometimes be easier for thieves to identify, which is why it’s worth being aware of how visible yours is from above.

A few simple precautions, such as a lockable tank cap, outdoor lighting and regular checks, can help keep your tank secure.

Next time you’re on Google Maps, it may be worth having a quick look at your own property. You might be surprised by what you can see.

You may have seen red diesel mentioned in the news recently, but what actually is it?

Put simply, red diesel is regular diesel that's been dyed red.

The dye is added to identify diesel that's taxed at a lower rate than standard road diesel. This means it's cheaper to use, but there are strict rules about who can use it and for what purposes.

In the UK, red diesel is used for certain permitted activities, including agriculture, horticulture and forestry. It's commonly used to power tractors, agricultural machinery and other eligible equipment.

Despite the colour, the fuel itself is essentially the same as regular diesel. It's the lower fuel duty and restrictions on its use that make the difference.

"Deep in the heart of Grangemouth, where only the bravest souls dare to venture, stood Graveyard Gas, a fuel depot with a difference.

By day, it looked like any ordinary depot, but by night, things got a little… spirited!"

A big thank you to our Grangemouth team for sending these in 😂

A fantastic view from the Isle of Skye!

Our Inverness driver Alastair captured this picture while out delivering heating oil on the island recently.

We're lucky to deliver to some beautiful parts of Scotland, and Skye is certainly up there with the best of them!

A lovely start to the morning at our Inverness depot!

Our driver Alastair captured this colourful early morning sky last week, with one of our Oilfast tankers getting ready for another day on the road.

As the colder months approach, our local teams across Scotland are busy helping keep homes warm throughout winter.

Thanks to Alastair for sharing the photo!
