As JOSHL said come to Milton Keynes - it is THE most expensive place in the country for 90% of the time.

I was in Fort William in January which isn't exactly easily accessible (I went through Glencoe in a blizzard) and fuel was STILL 3p a litre cheaper than Milton keynes FFS. Double FFS

Might pop up there at the weekend just to fill up !!!

I wish that was the case. I think the majority of people will continue to pay the stupidly high prices as opposed to finding another means of transport. but true

...about the same in NZ as Oz - divide by 3 for sterling.

?40p per litre - and that's a 20% rise in the past 3 months.
