"Fuel Prices"

Last night I was instructed by a higher authority to up fuel prices again at my work. This is the 5th rise in 3 weeks! whats happening? how much more can fuel go up? what price is fuel in other parts of the UK here in South East Scotland its

Diesel 90.9
Unleaded88.9
Optimax 96.9

It looks to be actually cheaper in England judging from this thread, diesel here at some places is around 93p.

usually just below that. It aint worth the risk!

you never know when there could be another shortage like when the truck drivers stopped the oil coming into the country! Cant trust the traffic either, like when i was stuck for 13 hours in the snow on the motorway.

55p per litre round mine. Made my own out of dead leaves from the bottom of the garden.

Paid 82.9ppl for unleaded this morning, but saw places with it prices 86.9ppl. Strange thing is, last week we were talking 79.9ppl, never seen it shoot up this rapidly.

At the time of the fuel protests wasn't it up around 90.9-92.9ppl? Wasn't driving as much then, and it was 4 or 5 years ago, so I could be remembering that totally wrong.

Mine usually lasts a week, which isn't bad condsidering the driving I do.

Ortega, you fill up once it reaches the 1/4 mark? I always let the meter go empty (my car has a digital fuel gauge instead of a pin). After testing my fuel capacity, and my luck, I know I can get from home to work on empty and still have enough left to get to a station. I think it implies it's empty so you have the chance to fill it up before it really is.

I don't look, just stick £20 and cry.

I think it was around 85p a litre when i filled up yesterday.

fook, i havnt filled up since last monday, but it was 83.9(diesel) at my sainsbury's. Havnt looked at the price since.

gonna have to fill up again soon as i get less than 1/4 tank left.

I can get unleaded for 60p and diesel for 40. And it's not red, either.
