Is anyone else noticing a fall in fuel prices?

Local Morrisons and Sainsburys regular is now 182.9p but have seen it at a Jet station for 179.9p

Local independent garage is £1.68.9 for unleaded. £1.76.9 for 97 RON.

Still £1.90 ish for derv but I don't burn that anymore so don't care.

That's only £7.68 a gallon for unleaded.

Feckin bargain!! :roll:

I read in the Mail that over half of the profits of Centrica were from the sale of one of its subsidiary companies and the bulk of Shells was from oil derivative products from their refineries, sold around the world and nothing to do with the domestic market. The MSM should get a full breakdown of where the profits are being made first, then if we are being taken for mugs, they would have the evidence to justify another windfall tax.

But we all know that any windfall tax no matter how lucrative will go on paying for all the dinghy arrivals accommodation. Last i heard it is now £6 million a day. :x
