However a year ago 90e was only about £60, you're only just getting hard done by!!

It's why I'm glad I don't use mine every day. My first one tried to bankrupt me 5 years ago, petrol's gone up a fair bit since the ;)

I use to have a Mitsubishi Pajero which had a 93 litre tank. You do cry when the pump goes past the hundred mark   :'(

Hmmm £93 for a tank of petrol. Here is some perspective, last night I sold a 2005 50cc moped for £100. Thinking I should have kept the moped  ::)

I spend about £70 a week on fuel, about £15 worth on average I get back from work for work use, depending on miles I do, we used to get a monthly essential user sum, but that has reduced over 3 years and ends at the end of this month >:( We can then, in theory use a pool car or the bus if we choose not to use our own cars...pool cars, will be very thin on the ground and you have to book in advance.......no good if you get an emergency call....... ::) ::) ::)

i'm potentially , maybe,  possibly,  taking on a permanent job role around Milton Keynes.....     staring down the barrel of a 90 mile a day round trip ....  and pondering buying a cheap ass diseasel  , and keeping the Mv6 just for weekends....


on the upside for this week,  we  just found a house.....    with a driveway i reckon can fit about 8 omegas on it.....  viewed it this morning,   i've already put in an offer. .........   :D

I filled up on Thursday at 73.7p, which dropped to 72.7p due to use of store's credit card.
