    Fuel prices

    I just fueled up at my local shop and got charged 110.9p a litre i just don't know how they can justify it. Has anybody else been charged this or more?

        110.9?

        Most I've paid so far was 100.9 at Tesco at the weekend, 64 quid for a fill up, and I spilled some too, that was painful for the wallet

          Well you guys must realise that the oil prices went through the roof when BP announced the closure of the Alaskan oilfield where they are having problems with rusted pipes etc? That's the problem this time.

          Predictions are that the price will rise to about £1.20/litre.

          Of course the government could give some relief by cutting tax on fuel.

          Oh ...I've just woken up.

                  Jesus it is getting beyond a joke. Luckily I'm still paying 99p at the mo for 99ron but I can it rising soon. Isn't good when your car is running rich either just burning money away.

                    104.9 for optimax today. That's the most I ever paid for fuel. Local tesco's was 103.9 last time i visited... I'm thinking of getting a bicycle.

                      I don't blame ya. I try and ride to work most days but its just to tempting when you have got your S2 sat outside your house.

                      A single cloud is a good enough reason to take the S2 and not the bike

                            Which creates a slight problem: when I fill up at the Pay-at-Pump pumps at my local tesco it imposes a £60 limit (is it just me and my **** credit rating?). This means I cannot completely fill up the tank from empty unless going for the queue for the pump and then the queue to pay in the kiosk.

                            I have a (push) bike. It's in bits in the garage. New chain required. Tempting... very tempting.

                            Ck.
                            Shocked, exhausted, hosed, bushed, dumped, chipped, mounted, filtered, gauged, packed, intermittantly wiped and braked. I mean broken. Now, about the car...

                              Same problem for me to 60 pound is the max at tescos and it never fills it all up.
