    does anyone know if petrol - car tax went up ??

    Not today as far as I can see - but since it went up on the 1st of April anyway and since he's "trying" to help the car industry, it would have been a bit of a laugh to raise it every three weeks...

    An election will make no difference. Just a different piggy squeal emanating from the feeding trough.

    Ration books may return.

    Haven't seen anything about changing car tax, but this was in the Red Book, clio: ... fuel duty will increase by 2 pence per litre on 1 September 2009, and by 1 penny per litre in real terms each year from 2010 to 2013


    Now how apt is that - the "in the red book" :rolleyes:


    Sorry, Lula - wrong ocean, huh? :o

    You may be able to find a key with it on. Alas keyboards come in many styles, 102, 103, 104, 105 and 106 keys... ;)

    Most common locations are a key between the z key and shift, and the last key next to the return key, on the same row as the L key.
