Oh begger......that's the nicer loo roll out the window, back to economy loo roll now!We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

Lol nope but the increase will mean that something will have to be cut back elsewhere....
I was trying to make light of it.....I failed miserably.

It seems the petrol stations my way have put their prices up a couple of pence already......obviously they don't want to miss out on the money to.If you find yourself in a fair fight, then you have failed to plan properly

Yep....and me with him.
I think I still need to brush up on my joke skills though, everyone always thinks I am being serious....sounds so much better saying it out loud in my sarcastic voice.

Oh I am very very sarcastic which never comes across too well on the forums....most of what I write is said in my head in a joke or sarcastic manner but then everyone takes it so seriously.
Anyway back to the fuel duty increasing - I too have noticed one of our local fuel stations prices have increased by a few pence in the last couple of days...the other is still the same at 98.9 (diesel). I will check tomorrow to see what changes there have been.We made it!

The prices around here (North Leeds) went up on Friday by 2p for Unleaded, 86.9p to 88.9p.
The Diesel was steady at 96.9p
