    shocking! people get a payrise but it doesnt feel like a payrise because the additonal money you get just abouts pay for the increase of food, bills and travel!

    Re: Petrol Prices :angst:

    if they was to give a 20% payrise each year then you can actualy feel as if you have got a payrise LOL. atm its 10% for me but i assume its decent enough because its of a percentage of what i currently earn, the payrise will increase steadily each year, for example a person starts at 20k, then goes to 22k, then on 24.2k, then 26.8k etc if you catch my drift

    Re: Petrol Prices :angst:

    Pre-bank holiday fill-ups for the win! (or oil companies pockets at least).

    How much does it have to go up for fuel prices to become the major cost in running a car?
