    Are petrol stations open today?
    Hey everyone.

    You know you get places that close on a bank holiday or whatever, well im practically out of petrol and forgot about today being good friday until this morning. Are petrol stations open today or not?

    Cos i cant chance driving all the way there and it being closed and having to drive all the way home. Its only a 5 min drive from my house but im nearly at the empty mark. Between empty and the first dash.

    Help!

    Uh.. I don't know about where you live, but here in Singapore, petrol pumps are open 24/7 including weekends and public holidays. It'd be pretty absurd to shut down on public holidays.
