    Fuel Price

    Well price of fuel per Barrel has dropped as of this morning. Price of fuel at the pump has decreased in Aussie. So why has BP yet again raised its forecourt prices? I tell ya folks we being rorted by the big green one. So fuck em I say.

    Well I won't use BP for gas. (I will for the butter chicken pies though) and I cycle to work these days saving heaps. 30km each way. The GSXR is being converted to bio deisel too.

    I guess there aint too much we can do, but hey if we all boycotted BP they might pull their heads in a bit.

    Buy a Hyosung, $25 = 450 - 500km

    Jimbo, how much is it costing you for the convesion to Bio Diesel and where exactly (as in Gas Station) do you purchase the fuel from, also what is the price of Bio Diesel per litre?

    Sounds interesting.

    Spare a thought for the poor Swedes. I was talking to someone the other day and they mentioned it was $2.42 a litre. Not sure if that included VAT which is 20%.

    It will go higher no doubt.

    Poms in London are over 1 pound per litre... do the math on that one and its around $3.00

    BP is always the first to put prices UP.

    As a percentage of income we've had it really good for a really long time. We still aren't anywhere near European prices as a percentage of income.

    We won't be boycotting BP as it is our preferred station. We get 3 c/l discount there, doesn't make sense to go anywhere else.
