Shire Petrol shops, summer opening hours...

Shire Petrol shops...

As I can often get close to running out of fuel, I like to know where there is hope of finding a garage open.
Fell free to post and add your local petrol shops opening hours.

To kick off this informative if not a little dull thread...


Summary of 24hour card garages:

Aboyne
Alford, Shell, 24 hour card machine located near the front door but can authorise any of the pumps.
Ballater
Banchory, Tesco
Ellon, Tesco
Huntly, Tesco
Inverurie,Tesco
Peterhead, Asda
Westhill, Tesco


Disclaimer...the author of this post is not liable for confirming that the actual garage will be open as noted above, or have the correct grade of fuel you require.
ie, don’t blame me if you are stuck out in the boonies with no petrol, looking at a closed garage and fearing that the local people living near the local shop will hunt you down to boil up your bones for soup stock

The Alford Shell garage has a 24 hour card machine installed, located near the front door but can authorise any of the pumps :2up ...or so they say.

I have not used it yet.

There is one card reader for all the pumps, I have use it a few times, no problems but it is a bit of a faf compared with pumps that have their own card reader

I have updated the first post of this thread with a summary of petrol shops with 24 hour card machines.

Any more to add to this list, especially out in the sticks ?
