I know this is always being talked about, but i never really realised the impact on putting it up by £0.10 could have.
Just before xmas i was constantly working up in manchester so i would fill my van to the brim from empty every week which would usually cost around £50.00 give or take a pound either side.
I havn't done this since then as there was no need to, but today i decided to treat her to a full tank, and the prteol light had only just come on. So i pulled in at the petty station opposite baerly dam nursaries where it was about £1.09 a litre. Filled her up, wondered when in the hell the meter would stop turning, and to my horror it was £61.07.
Put simply that small £0.10 rise on evry litre has cost me and extra tennet to fill me tank. This i never realised until today that although £0.10 aint really that much, on a larger scale it really is. Im sickened by this alot more than i origionally was. Absolutly shocked.
