GLP coming

Propane distributors have closed shop because they have depleted their inventories. Public transport unions say that half their vehicles are out of service because they have not been able to get propane and gasoline is too expensive to operate the service. A total of 4.7 million gallons arrived yesterday, with another 4.5 million gallons expected today. One more tanker with, 1.7 million gallons, should arrive on Thursday.
