For tourists wondering if they will find petrol in Brittany, I can confirm everything seems back to normal in and around Dinan.
There is no limit so you can have a full tank of petrol without problem.
There is no shortage of petrol...

The petrol situation in France
I passed a few petrol stations in Dinan (Brittany) yesterday and they all seemed back to normal. No queues, no limits... Panic's over!
Everything is back to normal... Until the next strike...

I have found some petrol!
As I was in Plouër sur Rance today translating for some English people who were buying a house in Dinan, I visited the Super U there and guess what?!
They had petrol... Diesel, unleaded, whatever you wanted!
No queue, no limit, just like a normal day - as if the strikes were not on.
I now have a full tank - just in case....
Plouër is near Dinan in Brittany.

Petrol shortage around Dinan Saturday 23rd
I have just heard on the French news that most petrol stations on French motorways will have petrol as it is half term in France.
For some of you based in Brittany around Dinan, only 4 out 6 petrol stations had petrol left last night but petrol stations have just been delivered this morning.
You should find petrol at Leclerc, Carrefour, and Taden Intermarché.
Hurry up though if you are desperate!
Some stations allow you up to 30 liters or up to €30 or €40.

Where to get petrol in Brittany
Strikes and shortage of petrol continue today in France...
I have just found a map on Ouest France web site where you can see what petrol stations in Brittany have petrol.
Some also show the maximum you can have (€30 or €40). You are not allowed to fill up jerrycans!
See this link here for the map.
I hope this helps.

Shortage of petrol
Most petrol stations around Dinan have now ran out of petrol but Super U in Lanvallay still got some this morning. I guess not for long... I am glad I filled up last Friday.
Reading the French papers this morning, we don't know how long the strike will last. It is best not to go anywhere unless you have to!
