hopefully the downward trend will turn into a long term spiral.
sainsburys have announced a 5p p/l cut if you spend over 50 quid.  ;)

Yaye!!!  :D

So glad pruces are going to come down! Prices in my little corner of Kent start at 120.9p up to 142.9 for diesel.

Might get to be slightly more reckless with my use of fuel, go out for the pleasure of it!

I know, I know I should only use the car for essential journey and I need to use a bike for the pleasure of it. But whilst there are cars and roads to enjoy, I intend to enjoy them.

The government like to tell us prices are high because of the cost of oil.
They neglect to tell us that about 60% is pure tax and added V.A.T. :-* :-* :-* :( >:(

Asda and Morrisons are cutting the price of unleaded to £1.13 and diesel to £1.27 from 6pm this evening. :y  It's good to see a price drop for a change but it's still not enough.
