No chance of fuel price coming down
« on: 17 January 2022, 18:54:16 »

Brent crude is up near it's 52 week high again today, so that measly 2p they knocked off will be going back on again.

Correct, it is at prices of $140 a barrel as it was in 2014 but the reality is that it is below $90.
The same thing happens throughout Europe too, absurdly high prices for no reason. Well, if there is a reason, you should buy an electric

Of course, once the UK was self sufficient from North Sea oil, it was going to cost us next to nothing. That didn't quite work out.

I remember saying I was going to give up ciggies when they hit £1 a packet, and beer when that hit £1 a pint.

Now look

That explains why Border Force are always significantly interested in the bags off Canary Islands flights ::)

£30 a box vs £140

Yes, but very far from what I reached in 2014. If the barrel returned to $140, how much would you pay for fuel?

Fortunately our mileage has decreased dramatically since we both retired used to spend around £300 per month on fuelling both cars, now around £80 per month & neither vehicle is exactly economical, cannot see the price of fuel coming down either.

Who knows what might happen, nobody saw oil at $10 a barrel in 2020.  :)

All it will take is the next super dooper thrice mutated deadly Covid variant to arrive and old folk to start dropping like flies within 28 days...  ::)
