Why do they have to do it now? Why couldn't they do it when the cricket was on so I had something to watch at home?!
I used to be with it. But then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems scary and weird.

Not very happy about all of this..I do 400 miles a week and am as narked about high petrol prices as everyone else, but I'm not going to make other peoples lives more difficult by blockading and protesting about it. I don't think a few blockades in the UK are going to make much difference to OPEC.

The truckies are doing it over here next weekend.........they will achieve nothing...........

fuel has gone up to about $1.30 a litre over here, thats about 55p.....a year ago it was less than 90cents a litre.......



Condoms should be used on every conceivable occasion.

I would love to only have to pay 55p per litre. I currently pay 93.9p!

I'm driving to Dover early on Friday morning, where's the best place to check whether there will be a go slow on the motorway becasue of this fuel thing?   Any good websites, or radio stations, I can listen to before hand.

I find this useful when trying to see if a road is slow or blocked

I would check the RAC traffic news as well, sometimes they have info that the AA don't and vice versa  (http://www.rac.co.uk/travelservices/motorway/ and refresh the page)
