i saw a £1.22 per litre in derbyshire on tuesday,
i was talking to the garage owner just down the road from me who told me he is giving up selling fuel as he only makes 4p per litre profit and thats selling it at a 2p per litre higher price than asda and tesco so he just cant compete, in favour he is going into doing MOT's were he is making a killing you have to book more than a month in advance now :shock:
its not just diesel thats gone up, my boss at the indian restuarant was moaning that nearly everyone of his suppliers has put everything up in price :shock:
keep the free cooking oil coming is all i can say :lol:
cheers kieran

It was going to happen, stuff has to come by road after all, veg oiil is getting more expensive too, everything is going up.
Perhaps we'll finaly have a bit of inflation and folks will see this useless bunch of public school idiots in gov't for what they really are, incompetant.
waveydavey:
I am curious for all the 'I get X miles more or less'; how are you working it out?
As I said the difference in the fuel comes from the quality of transport and storage not the supply.
My guess is that the difference in milage on a tankfull comes more from the amount in the tank.
IE One garage has a faster pump with a more sensitive cut off so a full tank has less in it and hence doesn't go so far.

I know this is off topic and I apologise but I need to get it off my chest.
While I tend to agree with your sentiment Andy I think "incompetent" is the wrong word.
Check this out http://www.theyworkforyou.com my MP spent nearly £22,000 on Incidental Expenses Provision last year.
That means he claimed more for things that are Incidental,last year than my whole income for the year.
I would not say that was incompetent more like dam greedy or just simply kicking me where it hurts most. :x :x :x
Did I vote for him.....NO
Would it have been different if the person I voted for had got in......I very much doubt it.
I am not going to continue as it will only wind me up and then I will be stressed as well as skint.
Ha Ho, what ever, somebody get it back on topic please.

Ok so BP ESSO etc all sell their OWN fuel...then can someone explain to me how when Buncefield went up..ALL the major fuel companies had vehicles in there - as well as some supermarkets and Independants?
(hubby delivered into their about 4 weeks after D Day, they were dragging units and trailers out and decanting any fuel into special tankers)
