Fuel panic!

[Initial P]

£159.9p per litre at Esso today for 99 Supreme but it does give more miles unlike V Power in my experience.

I would not tolerate this absolute nonsense, England is gone to the dogs at the moment - should these water canons fail I will gladly reverse my two tail pipes into the faces of these idiots and give them an ear full of 286g/km of a 6 cylinder petrol engine until they pass out

Amazing, technical hitch today ( and several days methinks ) at Tesco Sheerness Kent .....

Well everyone, just topped up again today .......  can't believe they haven't yet fixed their computer glitch .....  still all the fuel at yesteryears prices ( so it seems )

E5  only did  17.10 ltrs  today, popped in whilst just passing the door

Filled up in Brora last week at £1.409 for E10. Have been running a mixture of E5 and E10 the last few months, and not noticed much difference in economy or performance 🙂

I didn't play any golf John, but happened to be passing through on the way back from John O'Groats and needed to fill up. Was in Scotland for a week starting off in Dornoch (no golf there either 🙂), but had a great time visiting various places along the east coast of Sutherland and Caithness.

We spend a week in Cromarty every two years.

I filled up the NX today at Tesco in Salisbury. E10 at 144.9p per litre. I wonder why the difference?

Prices seem to be all over the place at the moment - within a few miles of each other around our way petrol stations are 10p a litre difference between cheapest and most expensive (this is in normal town setting - on the motorway significantly more difference than that). No logical reason whatsoever except profiteering.

Momentum 99 now up to £1.51.9 at my local Tesco.

[ALAW]

I just topped up with half a tank of E5

I mentioned this prior ..........  they said they have a " technical hitch " and can't re-programme the pumps right now ......  been ages too  ....  oh dear ! guess they're not actually losing money at this price, just not making any right now 

I'm sure it will end very soon once the teccy guys get round to this remote island, Sheppey,  a part of wonderful Kent

Thanks Pal !

Wanted to do my Sunday grocery shop only to find ALL the roads blocked!!!! Some had road works, others simply had traffic cones across the road. Clearly, this is the same policy as the "Insulate Britain" astro-turf group.

Now it's Monday and the road works/cones have magically disappeared!

Now price for raw oil has dropped.

Funny:

When raw oil gets more expensive price for gasoline climbs with at least same.

When raw oil price gets cheaper, gasoline price - no - no - no. Does not get cheaper.

A bit like Mortgage repayments John.

When Interest Rate increases so do repayments.

When Interest Rate falls repayments follow in 3 months time !

Only 3 months?

petrolprices.com is showing no updates for super unleaded these days. Obviously, the higher prices is scaring everyone off except me.

[flotsam]

Oh, and Germany demanding short-term contracts for natural gas from Russia is just an invitation for higher prices. This makes the US's expensive LNG commercially viable. As for the mRNA vaccine, that now requires three booster shots a year. Since when does a vaccine require a booster, when the whole idea is that it provides immunity by priming your immune system. Have immune systems now become senile? As for Tamiflu (Rummyflu) that was never a vaccine and that's according to the leaflet that came with in the box.

[jumbojake]

bit puzzled about the connection between supper unleaded prices (which are visible in petrol prices for me) , the price Germany pay for Gas and the vaccine.... is this a Monday puzzle, where we need to find a connection ?
