    I wonder if this will hit petrol/diesel too, that could have massive effect on people if it continues, not being able to go to work, pay bills, food supplies and even holidays

    Petrol/diesel is already creeping

    Petrol and diesel prices are rising in Aus too right now. Probably more a reflection of global market prices rising.

    For the first time, I've noticed petrol being more expensive the deisel here in the midlands - and by some margin (3pence more).

    Across the midlands, average petrol prices went up by 5p in 1 week recently.
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    petrol was always dearer than diesel its just the recent years where its been cheaper..
    It is nice to see the value of your house going up'' Why ?
    Unless you are planning to sell up and not live anywhere, I can;t see the advantage.
    If you are planning to upsize the new house will cost more.
    If you are planning to downsize your new house will cost more than it should
    If you are trying to buy your first house its almost impossible.
