Ronnie,

The best places to get red from is farms, but its pretty risky as im sure they'll really be on the look out at the mo which prices so high.

And if you believe what they say there is an additive in it which leaves a coating on your tank so they will know if you have ever used it - and Im pretty sure they will crush your vehicle if caught

It was in the paper that Venezuala (I know cant spell lol) has the cheapest diesel at 2.5p per litre - can you believe that? apparently the last time the government there tried to raise it the country rioted. mind they are an oil rich country. do you think people will start to riot here eventually?

Time to learn from our European friends?? Active protests. Blockades. Cause food shortages. To quote Bob Marley : "a hungry mob is an angry mob."
