    It aint ever going to get cheaper is it?

    I bet when you were paying 60p/litre you moaned about the cost then. And in 10 years time you'll be saying ..... when it was only 120p/litre.

    Where are you filling up? 125.9p sounds like motorway service station prices. I paid 111.9p at my local Shell today.

    With people still paying over £1 for a litre of bottled water, Petrol is dirt cheap with the amount of extraction/refining/transportation involved.

    to be fair, you've got to be slightly crazy to pay £1 for a litre of water. especially when you can get the same thing run out of the tap for virtually zilchoid.
