Road tax and fuel prices

I put in another thread, that my mams car a wee clio, when we first got it 6yrs, to fill the tank it cost £35, now to fill the tank its £50..!

Anyways with my girls school, they are goin to ban cars droppin off in front of the school, and quite rightly so… When I went to school, ( long long time ago lol ) I had to walk 1.3 miles to train station, then train ride, then another good 15min walk the other side, now I know the mileage to the trainstation, as i was under the mileage 1.5 to get the school bus.
I never got taken to school by parents..! always walked and nevered moaned…

My kids both walk to nursery and school with mum always have.

I find we tend to molly coddle our kids these days to try and protect them, oh its too far etc..!! most people drop there kids off by car and it is convenice to THEM, bring back Walk to School…

Now the fuel, when i was in Australia there, it was cheap as chips for fuel, so why the hell when we have Oil offshore around us, do we get tax oot our ar5es..!!!

OH THATS RIGHT, TO GIVE THE MP’S A WAGE RISE….

Please can you re-post it Emma and I promise to try and stay awake next time.

What you really mean, you havn’t the intellectual stregnth to read a thousand words from someone who (not me folks) makes it their business to know the Oil business.

OR worse still, you think the collective JustChat membership hasn’t.

I did cut it down to a thousand words, for everyone’s time consuming benefit…

Happy reading :lol: not you PissBladder

I did do a brief, but the brief was too much for his small brain.

He thinks the brief was too much for your brain.
