Diesel near Oxford?

[ThamesBoater]

Hi All,

Is there anywhere in or near Oxford where I can get diesel on the river? I have never needed it before so haven't noticed anywhere myself yet.
(I have tried searching the forum but the search just returns a blank page with the word 'busy' and nothing else)
I know there are a couple of places in Abingdon but Iffley lock is closed so I wont get near there.
Mind you I am still unsure if my boat will go under Osney bridge so I might have to get a fuel can anyway.



Cheers

Mark

I thing you've answered your own question.

Nothing in Oxford,
The yard above Eynsham sells diesel, but, by boat, that isn't exactly close.

I thought as much. Thanks!

Your nearest garage as you will be walking will be the one next to the Ice Rink in the Middle of Oxford.

No I wont, this week I am spending a small fortune getting the wife's car fixed. She can go and get it for me ;-)
