Round by me unleaded is 1.20 and diesel is 1.21 a litre I would be happier with 1.09 or even 99.9 most of which is tax anyway..... :axe:

We seem to have a bit of a price war round here in Stafford, Asda/Esso/Shell all seem to have about the same prices and if one moves the other two tend to follow, Petrol is 112.9p at the moment, I tend to ignore BP and Tesco as Tesco are ALWAYS 1 or 2p more than the other 3 and BP live in fairytale land and they are usually 4 or 5p more!

Was speaking to a collegue from the USA today.
He said that they are paying just under $4 per gallon at the moment. So that is 70p per litre... Just to cheer you all up.

Just driven from Preston ... pulled into a service station up there and kept on driving when I saw the price at £159.9 per litre of Diesel.

Norwich is at £144.9 at the moment.
