Price of gas dropped by 15 cents a litre yesterday.

Just been on the phone to a mate talking fishing and he tell me a mutual mate of ours who is an inshore commercial fisherman is giving up going back on the tools as red diesel has gone up so much he can't make a living. 

April 1st there is a big jump in duty for red diesel as well.

Cheers Arry

Last September my gas for the month was £18 

my estimated bill  for next month is £346 quid combined for gas electric 

I’m travelling 550 miles a weekend to work and back 

the Petrol price stabilising at 1 80ish puts my fuel into 300 sovs a month . Added to tax , insurance, tyres etc ,

thats 800 quid a month gone of my wage before I’ve even opened a book at 0800 Monday morning. Feeling the squeeze these days

That's exactly what's going to happen mate - it's truly shit

15,000 litres of diesel was robbed locally 

I hear the night Watchman noticed the syphoning pipe, but assumed some allotmenter was helping themselves to a gallon for their greenhouse heater 

It's a gas

It's all madness. Just all bills going up in general. The electric and gas is scary, in my little business I use a lot of electric and some of the machinery is 3 phase, am dreading it. Also with increased fuel prices and the looming of the clean air bill ( although has been put back for now, but is coming ) running a business is hard work. My little business is in a semi rural area and only a 10 min drive from my house, for work I have a little 1.3 diesel van which I use a tenner a week to get to work and back. But if the clean air charge does go through it would cost me a tenner a day to drive to work WTF £280  a month on top of £40 diesel to get to work every day. My suppliers ate putting raw material costs up. It's gona be a tough year . My other car is a 4.2 v8 so that fecker can stay on the drive for a bit lol. Rant over
