    Ta da.

    Officially there.

    Got to be honest, I do feel sorry for those folks that live close to the breadline but through their circumstances need a car to get about, work etc. It must be nearing the point - if not reached already - of having to choose whether to use the money to eat or use it for fuel to get to work. :(

    Although I'm in the fortunate position of easily being able to afford whatever it costs to fill up, I have started combining 'errands' into 1 trip now instead of just going to a, b and c willy-nilly as I'd rather be spending my disposable income on stuff other than diesel. :)

    What are our predications for the price of a litre of diesel at the close of the year? I reckon it'll be £1.70 litre :( but I think it could be higher if things get really out of hand in Libya and the Middle East.
