It great craic! For petrol, £11 for two small cans for a lawn mower! Am for Dublin tomorrow so fill it up along with a drum or two over the border, works out cheaper for me, plus i'll be that direction so not out of my way to get it.

i was in Amsterdam about a month ago and the fuel prices didn't seem to be that different apart from diesel was cheeper than diesel. But i was driving a petrol so if i'd been in the diesel then i would of noticed the difference in price.

Back from the dead
In Ibiza this week normal diesel prices were as follows (all about a quid for a litre:





This triggered a lorry drivers protest of 300+ lorries (on an island 20 miles high by 15 miles wide)



At the weekend I then visited Ibiza harbour and noticed that the boat owners seem to think the diesel is pretty reasonable. This is a real photo I took of a Sunseeker filling up part of its tank to go to Formentera island for the day (no Google images spoof!)



How the rich live. He stopped at 1000 Euros which didn't fill the boat.

The capital of Yorkshire
about 4 dollars (2 quid ish) per gallon last week in Florida ! (and they're complaining).

1 pound 28 pence per litre in UK this week !

Other interesting ones in the US:
$9.98 oil changes advertised.
$2.99 per gallon for 3 years when you buy a Chrysler.
Free servicing for life (can't remember who) on all cars sold.
Coca Cola just over 10p/can in multipack.
$26 ish for 2 adults 2 kids all you can eat breakfast buffet (and it was bloody good).
16 inch (fooking massive) nice pizza's in Walmart for $9.99 (might even have been $8.99).

Basically we're getting shafted.

how damn scary is this sh*t.

like clarkson would say, it's getting exciting in the same way as getting shot at is exciting.

Opened this thread for the first time and saw the opening post of 110p per litre....... JCA...

Sainsbury's down the road here went up to 129 p since 4 days ago. My last full tank for me over £50 for the first time ever (ibiza 1.9 tdi).

Sticking to 70mph, or even 65 if i'm not in a rush, i can easily get over 200 miles on half a tank :). I used to start getting beeps on 340 miles. Everyone is driving slower !

Maybe we can all make it backfire on the PTB (powers that be) if we all drive slower, need less fuel, check that out numbnuts [GB]... :)

The annoying thing is I don't know how far 1 tank at granny driving can go, because i'm always filling up ast half a tank before it goes up again...
