Yeah noticed it.

Whats it going to take to get cheaper fuel?

I think rolling road blocks like the go slow rides shave been most effective but is any of it going to make a change?

Also just reading the doc, what is a "acceptable level"? Could be a wide span of prices dependant on who you ask.

i doubt it'l ever get back to 95p, but if it were nearer to the pound mark then that wont b 2 bad.

I remember it being 84p a litre, thats only 2 years ago aswell.

84p? i never knew it were that low.

Listen carefully I will only say this once, one day in the near future we will look back on today's price and think it was cheap. I'm not kidding either.

As much as it saddens me to say, you're oh so right...

I remember when it got to £2 a gallon and we all had a Hissey

I'm ****ed off with even thinking about it any more to be honest, a bit like the workmate who moans about his bad back all the time. It is what it is and won't be changed by a few dawdling truckers, the winners are those who can find alternatives to their dependence on it or reduce their need.

As high as it is, it's still a fair way from making you decide whether to drive to work or go without food / electric etc. It would probably have to triple before it became really serious and the car would be a supreme luxury to use on Sundays etc.
