Tis slowly creeping up

I have a Shell fuel card due to the insane mileage I cover in the various modes of transport. Normally I get a rate even better than Trago Shell station - last week £1.31 for diesel.

Got the update on Fri as usual for the forthcoming week....




£1.62 per litre. 31p jump in a day, way dearer than normal stations now.

Thank you Donald

Diesel £1.62.9 friday around cornwall , was in Bournemouth at tesco saturday £1.48.9 , barnstaple Sainsburys Sunday £1.44.9 , M1 Toddington services this morning according to radio £1.90.8

A contractor i help out ordered red desiel 10 days ago at 62p ltr, monday 99p ltr but theres none available apparently the army have reserved most of the red

Have been watching the petrol prices at Morrisons in Teignmouth this week and a week ago unleaded was 1.27.9 its has gone up a penny every day and now 1.34.9 quite sure it will continue to rise... they couldn't have decided to do this in the winter when we didn't need to drive anywhere they had to wait for spring didn't they....

If you look at where the crude prices we are now, we are over the hump so the pump prices should stop rising and start to ease back soon.


Still higher than a month ago though

But not as high as when Russia kicked off.

Prices won't drop until Sept time. The companies will make the most of people not travelling abroad again and staying home over the summer doing 'Staycations'. Only when they go back to school (if we are all still here) will they drop.
