    I dont think so its been well over a quid for a while in Boston at Asda 102.9 at the moment

    Our hearts all bleed for you, I got a local bargain at 111.9p for diesel yesterday, saving 3p on other prices I'd found. :p

    Once the £1 a litre barrier was broken the next stop will be £2 I bet it hovers just below for months then a "green" tax hike will take it through and the cruise up to £3 will start.

    I hope the 'glass' (?) ceiling is lower than that (150p?), but who knows?

    Some people are so naive though, I spoke with our FD about increasing the mileage rates by at least a penny given the recent hikes, he responded that he wanted to wait a while to see if the price came back down. :rolleyes2

    He just didn't get my point about £1 being the ceiling for a while which was now broken so it just wouldn't come down...

    (He wasn't just being tight either).

    Have the the prices of diesel and petrol gone up anywhere else but round our way (South Shields, Nr Sunderland) or is it UK wide?

    We only pay 30p a litre down south, the bloke at the petrol station told me they fleece people in the north east to sponsor our cheap fuel...
