How long till petrol stations back to normal?

I just wondered how long it was going to take to go back to normal. I thought it already would have gone back to normal, but instead my local petrol stations are selling out of any petrol in less than 24-hours. Tonight all my local petrol stations are closed as they are out of fuel.
So across the UK, will it take a few more days, a week, or more?

It appears to be regional. North no problem, South lots of problems.

Yes I know it varies a lot by area. But they must be able to work out when it will get back to normal in Britain.

Seems to have been a bit improved here in the midlands today, drove past several petrol station and they were all trading with no long queues, forecourt's were busy and still lots of yellow out of fuel tags on some pumps but not queuing for miles or closed.

I thought it would have calmed down by this weekend but I'm guessing early next week now. (I'm down south)

I hope you are right about early next week. Any longer and I am going to have to start trying to find petrol. I am hoping it will all be over before I need to refill.

Still going on where I am, too many ignorant idiots. That said, the queues seem to to be smaller, petrol stations are still running out though. Luckily I filled up a week before this started and can go another two, possibly three weeks if I’m careful.
