Anybody filled their car up this week?
« on: January 13, 2011, 03:34:49 PM »
Fvck me!  eeek:

I'm thinking about having one of these fitted.




Cheapest diesel round here is £1.32.9 a litre. Scandalous!
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

Completely outrageous and most of it tax!

Diesel was €0.34 when we moved here - now, since joining the EU it is €1.15  cussing:

Log man delivered this afternoon. Load has gone up by £5 to cover his extra diesel costs. He was most apologetic but that "knock on" effect is what is most annoying
 ... and the Government neither seem to care nor even notice. cussing:

This was yesterday.

Most place here sell it at 132.9 or 133.9, but for some reason Sainsbury's was 130.9 today. It still cost £81.83 to fill up though  cussing:

Just a thought but for those of you on diesel how much would it cost you to get the kit to run on chip fat? Any decent sized city would have enough fast food places to keep you running without burying you in tax depending on how much the rest of it costs.

Something tells me that most of the members here don't have a farm that can be changed into biofuel production Darwin..

Mind you, it could end up being a bigger money spinner that your lucky turnips  lol:

Heating oil is 74 pence a litre ~ I have a 1000 litre tank in the garden ~ maybe Kim was right.  rubschin:
