were saying:

37p for a large wholemeal sliced loaf.

Where? Even the cheapo salt ridden Tesco ****e is more than that.

sigh Y'see in the post you replied to, where it says "ASDA". There's a
clue in that bit.

Truck go one way across water.
Truck come back across water.

Yep, the UK truck would be doing that, just as would the Polish
truck.

Polish truck is taking a load that would be paying for this.

Yes...? And...?

What's so special about this load that it can only be carried on a
wagon with Polish plates?

Who said anything about it being solely Polish? It was you who
introduced that. I said foreign.

Whatever. Not British registered.

I thought it was really difficult to do that, since VOSA were
everywhere stopping trucks that looked dodgy?

Not enough VOSA people to catch all the foreign drivers.

Surely, if the EU ones are that hooky, the VOSA people there ARE would
be focussing on 'em?

They are. They still don't have enough inspectors to inspect all the
thousands that come in every week.

So any British registered wagon must get left fairly well alone, then?

True, but you also asked "what have you picked up on". Although you
didn't ask me personally. I just butted in.

Steve,

Seriously, mate...

If you can't tell the difference between...

"White hall" and "White Hall" (White Hall where/what?)
"Bible college of wales" and "Bible College of Wales"
"Coventant Ministries" and "Covenant Ministries"
"Bags etc" and "Bags etc." (or even the equally illiterate "Bags ETC."
they style themselves)
"Crosby homes" and "Crosby Homes"
"Crane care" and "Crane Care"
"Solihull education" and "Solihull Metropolitan Council, Education &
Learning"
"Radstock coop" and "Radstock Co-op" (or Radstock Cooperative Society)

....then you really aren't the right person to be proof-reading the site.

As i said Adrian i hadnt seen the site for a few weeks and i hadnt
proof read it , when i looked all the client details were correctly
matched to the details i have on file (sales orders , enquiries etc
from hard copies faxes and emails ) . These can be different to the
logos on thier web presence i should have checked before i gave him the
details .I have been assured that everything will be soughted shortly
by the web designer including checking the grammer of the text and
apparently the need to scroll from side to side , the person now doing
the site has only recently took it on and is trying to sought oout the
mess and redesign it .

I will be looking at the new site but it will be proof read by someone
who is more able than me .

A few short months ago the prospect of diesel fuel breaking through
the £1.00 a litre barrier appeared to be unlikely, but with it now
costing over £1.20 a liter that's nudging £5.50 a gallon, this got me
wondering just how much it would have to reach before people on this
newsgroup reached a point where they would be seriously thinking about
giving up their car? .. My own threshold would be somewhere around
£10.00 a gallon and that would be it.

I'm currently knocking about in an LPG Vectra Estate as well as the
Range Rovers. Quite funny. Rangie's do around 50-60 miles for £20,
Vectra does 220 for £20. I still use the Rangies when I'm not going
more than around 40 miles.

It's simple, if fuel doesn't come down, I'm just going to have to charge
more for every job I do. Putting the price of fuel up doesn't mean I'll
give up driving, it just means the price of everything I do goes up.


Indeed, the vast majority of my family weekly mileage is mine and
work-related so I'll simply stop using my own car and start using hire
cars instead. There will be a cutover point where the pence per mile
paid won't cover the fuel and running costs of the car (which I haven't
calculated yet...) so once it hits this I'll just switch over.

As for personal miles; the cost of fuel has come up but my mortgate has
come down by about 60 quid a month recently so that more than covers the
extra fuel. I know that doesn't work out long term but I had a seven
grand payrise earlier in the year... If it gets to a point that I have
to worry hard about buying fuel I guess I (and the world) will have more
on my mind than just 'do I take the car'!

The cost to put petrol or desiel on the forcourt is something
around 40 pence per litre 80 pence is tax

More like 47/73 - and it's the left hand figure which is going up in
leaps and bounds. If it hits 1.50/litre on the forecourt, it'll be
about 75/75.

It costs less than 2 dollars a barrel to lift it out of the ground ,its
just the way the tax escalator works .Most other countries have a fixed
tax collection figures

No, it's nothing to do with that.

Unless you've had your head in the sand for the past, ooh, ever, you'll
have noticed that people talk about the price of oil - it's the one
quoted in dollars per barrel. This has been going up rather a lot
recently, and oil companies are normal businesses - they sell their
product at the market rate. So even if it costs $2/barrel for them to
get the oil (which is very much at the cheap end), there's no way you're
paying less than the $120 or so it sells for at the moment.

Which is why they made so much profit in the first quarter this year
