Our Gov. knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.

I think you'll find the low LPG prices are only guaranteed til 2012 then I think you'll find the price will be going up!

Is LPG also called Autogas as that was 36p a litre when it first came out at a BP near me and its 70 something now! Doubled in a few years. Can they blame that on oil prices?

Someone said about the cost of fixing potholes... dont know that but I do know that it costs about ?14,000 to install a zebra crossing (painted lines and 2 beacons......?14,000???????) and a pedestrian crossing costs around ?40,000. The government doesnt care though as its our money that pays for this to happen!!

My fuel bill for the ST was about ?230 a month. Despite the 5 PPL extra for the diesel, I've halved my fuel costs. Happy days. I need the money. Running a house is getting crazy.

I'd rather have a V6 - no doubt about that one - but can't argue with the savings if you do the miles - let alone the lower VEL and insurance.

That being said - fuel - and that is all fuel - gas etc included, are all crazy overpriced.

Government are getting all kinds of wake up calls at the moment. BNP getting more votes than the lib dems in Barnsley is just one example. This country would never come to the riots and troubles overseas to get rid of governments/dictators, but there comes a point where a lot of people are going to be saying enough is enough.

And to cope with it, there'll be a lot of very demotivated cops.

dont know if you saw the sign on the M8 road works that read "Please respect road workers"

I read it as "please drive quiet so you dont wake the workers up"
