Default Calor Gas to discontinue some bottles

Apparently Calor Gas are to discontinue the 4.5 KG Butane and 3.9KG Propane bottles.

These have been around since the Arc and if true I can see this as being an issue for motorhomers, caravanners and those with boats.

I at least have enough gas for a couple of years but this is shock news if true.

Do you know if true?

Perhaps would be a good idea to ring or email Calor rather than ask on here ??

yea, I really regret asking the question, I mean really regret.
I get annoyed when people ask such questions on forums instead of ringing the companies. The first part was to make people aware, the question was just plain stupid.

You should have asked Calor Gas first and then if they were going to discontinue, then post the info. The first part of #1 does not make people aware because they do not know if it is true or not.

Might be a good idea for you to ring Calor and find out so it will put our minds at rest
