I'm happy with the amount coming in, it's that 60% of it goes straight out again in running costs :cry: Without rent and insurance I'd be laughing.

Things are looking up though, might be getting 1p off fuel duty thurs. Whoopy f**king doo.

That also means 0.2p less VAT to pay. Woopy doo indeed. As that means fuel won't be priced at 139.7 a litre instead of 140.9 down to 139.9, that's another 0.2p a litre for the fuel companies.

Who will probably bung a couple of pence on a litre anyway as they usually do at this time of year.

Yup, 1p off a litre will save me a whopping £20 a year based on my mileage :roll:

I didn't hear about the 1p off a litre in the autumn statement....just that the planned increase of 1p a litre won't happen yet. :?

It'll take weeks to come off the price of a litre. When it goes up the staff scurry off to the back office to increase the price ASAP.
