The local Shell garage has put their price up yet another 1p today. Is it a true reflection of an ever increasing price from the wholesalers, or a cynical desire to milk the motorist?

It’s 180.9p for diesel, the fuel of the gods :)
And today, the price has risen yet another 1p to 181.9

so the chancellor drops the price 5p + 1p tax = 6p

the local Shell dropped it 5p and then a day later by another 1p

then increased it 2 days later by 2p

then another 1p

and now another 1p

profiteering bstards I’d call it.

People who stand hacking at the tills when there are people queuing behind them.

Getting yesterday’s stale bap when my sausage and onion bap was delivered. It went back.

The fact that the clown who installed the hatch to the attic put it in the most stupid place…we have a nice big hallway but said clown decided to put it in the only narrow bit of corridor we have meaning the ladder is in the way when down. You vcan just about get past it, but there eou’d be room to herd a flock of sheep past it in pretty much every other location.

My mind just boggles sometimes.

I took out a service plan on the car when I bought it…at the end of March I got a letter from the provider saying that ‘as instructed’ they have cancelled the plan and sent me a cheque for £541.79 representing the balance outstanding. Absolutely no idea why they have done that.

After many conversations with the most incompetent organisation I have ever had the misfortune to encounter I now have three cheques for £541.79 but no reinstatement of the original policy. Unbelievable.

it has occurred to me that if I cas( the cheques I will be in pocket by many £ hundreds but I know that will just end up causing more irritation in the long run.
