Fuel

[graafen]

As the fuel prices in this country continue to climb rumours are starting to fly around that another fuel protest is immenent. Speaking with my work colleagues it seems there are mixed feelings about this, with quite a few not wanting this to happen because they are too dependant on their cars.

So I put this to you, if we don't protest what do we do instead? How can we force the goverment to reduce the tax on fuel?

the roundabout as I leave work was clogged yesterday with people turning off towards the nearby petrol station, plus a coworker queued 20mins this morning to get fuel he needed *rolls eyes* annoying when one actually needs fuel (like for driving a 160mi round trip to Bedford on Wednesday evening)

There was a clip on the news last night. Woman pulls onto forecourt and is greeted by an attendant:

Attendant: Petrol or Diesel?
Woman: Petrol.
Attendant: OK, queue up over there. The wait's about an hour at this point.
Woman: OK.

Buh! I amused myself in the queues last night by revving my engine. I have enough fuel to last until next weekend so don't mind me :)
