Bootsha 1,306 Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I work 6 days a week, normally had 5 days down for all bills, anything children or wife needed, generally everyday bills, saturday money was for extras, if the kids wanted something or similar, it was used for that and the like, now, I have to work saturdays to pay for my fuel to travel to work the rest of the week. And its not likely to come down is it, no matter what they do to Gadaffi. A bit of red wine, cherryade, call it what you like, may be called for soon methinks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

graham4877 1,181 Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 TBH is a f*****g joke the price of it, but they have got you by the balls as you need it to get to work, but it might stop the fat lazy c**ts round here that drive to the shop/school, when it would take longer to use the car than it is to walk, or like one fat bitch gets the bus to school to drop off kids and pick them back up, kids get out at 3.15 she gets the 2:50 bus and its a 5 min walk for her, why the f**k would you just not walk down, it takes us 10 min and we walk to drop off and pic up son!!

scalesntails 118 Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Put in £10 of petrol on Saturday. Went to Tescos to buy £6 worth of juice to make homebrew with. Orange light was on in the car by the time I was halfway home. I have worked out I can produce ethanol for about 20p a litre if things things don't improve but will need to look at converting the car and what the penalties for distilling it would be.

nod 285 Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 i run my van on lpg round here its 79.9 a litre, when i first got the van 2 year ago it was 53.9, it only holds 35 litre but i get between 220 and 250 miles on a good run and thats driving round towns to and from jobs, i brought the van already converted for 1400 and i looked in to it to see how much they are to convert and found the average for a proper set up is 1400 you will save money in the long run, i will keep my van till it goes bang or i crash it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
