Petrol prices
 

It seems that every day I pass my local supermarket the price of petrol has gone up a penny a litre.

Is it the cost of a barrel of oil rising or are distributors cashing in at the moment?

Crude oil is about 4% cheaper than it was 12 months ago, when unleaded was 112p per litre.

Ouch that stings.

Just shows how a little bit of unrest in the Middle East on the TV news and suddenly giving more profit to the oil companies seems reasonable!
