It's only the fact we have been taking a bumming for years that it looks reasonable now. I'll be happy when it gets under a quid....

Re: Rejoice the price of fuel !
Went past a petrol garage in Northumberland (Thropton) and petrol there was nearly 150 a litre!!
Sorry but I'm a half empty too and wonder how we've all forgotten that there was talk of all sorts of protests when fuel looked like it would go to £1.00 a litre. . . .
And let's not forget that everything else has risen in price due to the rise in fuel costs - seen anything reduce as a result of the lower cost of a barrel of oil?
I'm acutely aware that I'm enjoying what may be the last chance to exploit a large engined sport car before it becomes prohibitively expensive!

Re: Rejoice the price of fuel !
I spent last week in the Channel Islands on business.
Filled up my DD with diesel @ £1.09 considering they don't have VAT I thought it might have been cheaper.

Re: Rejoice the price of fuel !
I'm afraid I can remember filling up at my local garage when it became the first in UK to sell at £1 per gallon.
