I'm looking to be very busy next week on a decommissioning and mothballing basis, and I'm looking forward to some downtime to get on with a shed load of DIY I've not had time for in ages

I'll just wait until we are all confined to barracks, and I've stocked up on dock leaves to wipe after.........well you know what

Brian

Thanks for confirming my earlier post Brian

I stand corrected. My apologies. An annual fee is required to use the store and fuel facilities. Well worth it if you live close by and rack up the miles and free 5 year warranty on TVs where places like Currys will charge a couple of hundred quid for the same cover.
One day a week on a random day they'll drop the price of fuel at normal fuel stations up here then put it back up the following day, normally the day after you've just filled up!

Not bothering a soul.

Know Leyburn and Richmond well, holidayed near there every year as a kid. Hillcrest cottage at Carlton in Coverdale overlooking Roover Crag across they other side of the valley at West Scrafton. Many happy memories of helping the local farmer at milking time and hay making time. Must have a visit back there in the summer and stop this time.

You finally got home then, managed to find any food yet Tony?

Down to 99p / litre for unleaded at Costco. Madness!

Yes I managed to get home 4 days after planned and touched down at Gatwick instead of Newcastle but at least they got me an emergency flight back to the UK .
Supermarkets have plenty of food but we're going to sh#t for England judging by the panic buying of loo rolls.

I bought my Jaguar S-Type R 4 years ago when unleaded petrol dropped to 99p a litre and planned to run it as a daily as they said unleaded would drop to 80p a litre which of course it never did. At an average of 14.5 mpg I ran it for 2 years before using it as a 2nd car as fuel prices crept up month by month.
Fuel prices might be dropping but when this Corona virus pandemic peaks and is over the prices will rocket again as well as the interest rates so the government can claw back the 80% pay supplement.

120 if you line it with a bin bag .........although it does splash about a bit. Think I will use more that one bag next time, guy next in line to me had a number of bags, all tied, didn't spill a drop........ hindsight is a wonderful thing

Just taken advantage of filling up the Volvo with diesel at Asda for £108.7 no Costco here

Think it's as cheap as I'll find locally.

I'm always a bit miffed when major retailers, such as Asda charge different prices for the same product.

It's 1.06 at my local Asda, can they not have uniform pricing at the pumps ?
