Apparently there was a blockade at Stanlow last night, it's been mentioned on Real Radio a few times today but that's all I've heard about it, a quick Google hasn't shed any light either

Back in my day Freddos were 10p and so were Taz bars, and I was born in 1991 so my day wasn't that long ago

Can I be the first to say how pointless higher octane diesel is concidering diesel doesn't have a RON rating. Save ya cash 
Derv has a cetane number rather than a octaine rateing.
V power Derv has a higher Cetane number than normal stuff.
Its still a waste of money though.

Was just about to post saying its cetane numbers for diesel
An equivalent to v power is adding millers diesel sport to each tank, that increases the cetane rating
I cant ever see petrol coming back down below £1.
And I laugh at people travelling an extra 10 miles to get petrol 2p cheaper at a local shell, their only saving £1 on a 50l tank. Pennies hardly make a difference unless your buying large quantities on a regular basis

it will just creep up in other ways - ie the cost of oil in general a etc
It will never come down
it sbeen above £1.30 for a while now and people have only really gone mad when its been getting nearly £1.40. In 6 months time it will be £1.40 and that will be the norm

It's 129.9 for petrol here now and 136.9 for diesel, apparently Yorkshire has the cheapest in the country?

I used to get 10p bags of Space Raiders in my day, when I was young, back in the day, on the way to school with my £1.50 dinner money that would see me eating like a king

At school most kids got burger, chips and beans with one of those drinks you pierce with the red straw (not capri sun, the one with the flat top).
I would get two plates of chips and beans plus two of the drinks.
Then I'd pour one plate onto the other and have a mountain of food.
All the other kids would be jealous with their BSE ridden beef shit. (btw, I ate BSE ridden beef at the time too, but the stuff you'd get in school was just ground up bones and brains)
