about that here too.

but after next weekend it wont bother me tomuch as i should be runnin on gas! :) :)

Gas is great, but when the Government finally do cotton on the the fact they could put loads of duty on gas then what. :exclamation
i think its time do something now, if every one sent an email or letter to their MP instead of just moaning about it then something may get done, its a nation af whingers not doers, if this were france there would be hell to pay. the price of fuel is bonkers >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(.


That is when heating gas sales soar!

104.9 Unleaded, 112.9 Diesel, 117.9 Super Diesel, these are local to me. I was talking to a HGV driver from Holland last week, he explained that the two tanks on his truck held 700 litres each ie 1400 litres, diesel in Holland is one Euro per litre - £0.75 x 1400 = £1,050 to fill up, the same in the UK £1,581 thats £531 cheaper. His boss said that if he has to buy fuel in the UK he pays the difference !
We are just mugs to stand for these high prices.

I filled up at 103.9. It was a Shell garage, which beat all the other garages locally. Even Tesco, Morrissons and Asda couldn't compete.

At half 11 at night in Gosport/Fareham I wish I'd had a choice.  :( The only place that was open was Fareham near the Bird in Hand but they were lacking in fuel of all types!  :-?  :y  :y

I think the problem now is the price of petrol breached the magic £1.00 a litre mark and no one complained like they did a few years back. Petrol hovered below the £1.00 a litre for ages because nobody was brave enough to want to start a riot now its happened and all is quite look how quick prices are rising. The skys the limit :'(
