    There is a recession coming, commodities will sink in price as demand is less than expected...

    Noticed in the UAE papers I read that Sheik Maktoum just bought a slice of an Oz goldmine as well, I guess shares are down otherwise it would be stupid to invest now as gold is bleeding expensive.

    Diesel prices are coming down, have noticed driving around today that prices are falling.

    $78 a barrel now down from what $140? petrol / diesel once the futures bit should be well below a pound/litre in the next few months.

    Super unleaded is for High Performance cars.

    Onyl because its a more refined fuel and generally better for engines, as it reduces engine knocking, the higher the RON/Octane number (Research Octane Number) the better it is.

    Thats why they use it in performance cars etc. but anyone can use it, if your willing to pay the extra.

    Was 99.9 yesterday at Morrison's Gravesend... all pay at pump. Good times. Still needs to drop a long way though... hopefully back down to about 80p a litre

    Take advantage now as there´s an Opec meeting coming up and I´m sure they will simply cut productions to stabilize the price between $80-100

    what baffles me about all this how can BP, TEXACO , SHELL etc be allowed to still sell it at over £1 - profiteering at it's worse.

    And what winds me up the most is you can have shell 1.05 in one garage and 1.09 in another 1 mile up the road.

    I think some of them are franchised, hence they all charge differently

    Thing is, they'll charge the higher price all the time people are paying it. Asda, 99.9... just round the corner is a Total, selling at 106.9, doing a brisk trade...

    What gets me is Gordon Brown 'demanding' that these companies reduce their prices at the pump whilst conveniently forgetting the main reason they're so f*cking high is because of the amount of tax on it!

    Slowly but surely creeping up and up and up again. Seems to be going up about 1p every week. Unleaded is 97.9 at my local garage but have seen it back to over a quid at motorway garages.

    Just back from Florida, where we were paying (if I've worked it out correctly) about 25p a litre... and they were moaning that it had just gone up in price! It was $1.40 a gallon...
