I'm so very happy I have a company fuel card to pay for my petrol  :smug:

Seriously though - maybe we should start taking thouse "boycott Esso and BP" e-mails a little more seriously!

Well i've just serviced my mountain bike in anticipation of another hike and the VR6 is on hold.

Ok its only 97.9p(shell) 99.9(tesco) but I can see that £1 mark getting closer and beyond.
