The gas company's are nothing but crooks. I was under the impression that every day the price of oil is dropping, well they had dropped the price of gas here and then all of a sudden yesterday up it went 5 cents a litre. We were at $1.31 per litre and now it's back to $1.36.Yet you check on gasbuddy.com and in southern Ontario it is $1.14 per litre. According to gasbuddy.com Thunder Bay has one of the highest gas prices in Ontario.
Great to be a northern.

Petrol went up to £1.25 / litre or so, and Diesel £1.34...perhaps higher. It's now come down, and our local supermarket sells 95 RON at £110.9 / litre and Diesel at £121.9/l plus they now sell Biodiesel. Where you can get it, 98 RON Super Unleaded sells between 95 and Diesel prices. Gas seems to be around £0.60/litre..that is Autogas or LPG, though local buses have run on CNG or Compressed Natural Gas.

I believe in France that they have 92 RON? I am not sure either of our cars can run on that.

There is one station about 10 miles away that sells Leaded fuel for classic cars...that's £1.50/l!!!

David:
Gasoline, unleaded, here in Arizona was .96 USD per liter today or about .51 British pounds per liter.

Currently around $1.58 (74p) per litre for unleaded, diesel is about $1.67 (78p). Please send us some!

Jeez, you still have that? Over here the eco-nazis would be rioting in the streets...

Regular [unleaded] in this area is hovering just over $1.20 CAD right now, but because this is the summer, the price tends to go up on the weekends. Pure coincidence you understand, no conspiracies at all...

[jim sewell]

ULP is $1.42 and diesel is $1.70

The Military vehicle club has a 7 day run starting on Sunday which will go for about 1700 kms , some vehicles will do the 28L per 100kms .
Fuel in the country could be up to $2.00 L.

All the best, Jim.
Those prices are better than they were a month ago and despite the cost, I wish I could be there.
I'm sure there'll be plenty of material for the Newsletter from this one.

Below is the 'Enola Gay' now at the Smithsonian outside Washington.

Thanks Jack
The price has dropped but seems to have settled , was hoping it would go lower to coincide with the trip .
It looks as if the weather may be ok temps from 6 deg to 24 deg with a easterly wind .
I was not aware that the Enola Gay was in a museum , looks to be an extensive display.
Safe travelling.
