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

1.42 Swiss Francs or 67.2p/litre for 98RON and that's expensive for over here. Expect it to rise when the yanks drop the bomb

...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.

I filled up Sunday night in newport pagnell for 79.9p, thats only 1p more per litre than the normal stuff. Have all prices gone up in MK, I will have to check.

BURR - Roundhay Road, near Thomas Danby college. Harehills is it ? Esso garage down the bottom by the college. Always much cheaper there, other place is Esso in Horsforth, something like 78.9
