Hi

Overnight, the diesel price has dropped from about €1.20 to €1.05. Unlead still at €1.25.

The same in England or not?

Anyone know of any reasons for falling diesel prices?

Fuel prices in the euro zone are made even better at the moment because of the good exchange rate with the pound

Not if you pay in euro, earn in euro and live in euro, so why have you brits not got the euro yet....the rest of europe has not gone broke as promised yet anyway.....

oh it is 99.9 cent here....you can do the exchange back to old money yourselves

Because we have the £ and unfortunately NP. In the early days we had £ S D - Pounds Shillings and Pence - In the early 70s - 72 if I remember rightly - we went to decimalisation. From that date on everything went up in price. Crisps for example were 4d - withing 12 months they were 4np - almost 10d.

In those days, 100d was 8/4d, 240d was £1. We had coins like farthings, half pennys, 3dbits - joeys, sixpences - tanners or sprazeys, shillings, two shillings - florins, half crowns - 2/6d and slightly before my time, Crowns - 5/0d, groats - 4d and 2d coins - cartwheels

Hi

I will swap you some Italian diesel for two loaves of warburtons, some smokey bacon and a jar of mint jelly!

Russell
Russell, I am sensing a serious craving for warbutons and mint jelly, the smoky bacon is a new addition!! If it gets that bad, PM me your address and I'll post you a batch.

Maybe not the bacon as it will get a bit warm but the other bits should be ok!

p.s you don't have to send the italian diesel as payment, I'll do it for free as a concern for your mental well being!! I craved Heinz Beans when in Spain, didn't usually eat a lot of beans but when I couldn't buy them, I wanted them!

Where is here please?
It's nice to know whereabouts members are based (if necessary without being too pricise, that is).
