cant believe how much diesel prices have gone up in the last 2 weeks iv been to nottingha mand darlington and petrol isnt to bad and hsnt really risen that much where as diesel every other day it went up a penny in nottingham (same garage) fkn takes the pish that its just accepted and nothing we can do

this country charge us tax on everything and blame it on helping the envoronment ect ect, yet they are ok to drive the cars they want and fly where they want

anyone see the paper the other day a 100million pound (if not 1billion :S) boat
it holds 40 workers and 24 passengers holds 750.000 litres of fuel, what a waste of moneny pollution and fuel, for 24 passengers its ridiculous yet no one stops them doing things like that, the whole top deck was a garden and tennis court, the boat was the size of a massive cruise ship all that space money for 24passengers its just a waste

p.s im at worjk and peed off with them so if you aint bothered then dont leave daft comments towards me as im on one... a mission and a half

....fuel prices are always on the rise.
throughout your life it will never get any cheaper over a long period of time.
Just something you / we will have to get used too.

It's to do with demand as well. The US market is buying more as heating fuel oil over the winter.
