Wow, a pound a litre.

I might go and buy a few hundred Coka Cola bottles and start filling them up to stave off any future price rise.

Keep my dentist happy in the process. :wink:

Shell was charging 94p tonight, so there seems to have been some movement from 99p at long last.

It took a while, but a welcomed development none the less.

wait till the arabs and jews kick off properly and OPEC gets the hump, and restricts supplies, they know how to win the economic battle

when its £2 a ltr public unrest in the west will become pressure on Israel to back off

The thing is that many in Opec are desperate for money, yet as the world collapses we ain't desperate for oil.

I'm looking forward to hydrogen fusion, and then we can tell the Arabs and those north of the wall where they can stick their oil. :D

I took a little road trip to Spain on on Boxing Day and for first time ever in my memory diesel was more expensive in France than in UK.
