Apr 18th 2008 01:03 pm [Rant] Petrol Prices + normal crap!
Hey it’s me once again in a full scale ranting mode, today its petrol prices I think it’s a common subject and worry on most people’s minds these day’s. Well yesterday petrol was at an “affordable” 106.9 I got paid today and its just cost me £40 for half a tank @ 109.9 this is now killing me I’m worrying about getting to college now and further education might have to be cancelled due to extra living costs and all that general crap that’s just really annoying the f*ck out of me.
BUT apart from that everything is OK I guess the car is working 100% and have maximum mpg right now I’m tempted to start stripping out unwanted weight to improve mpg that means bye bye sub
The car had a full check up last week while having zorst and tires sorted oh and tracking which means it looks like its certainly going to pass MOT
I don’t know if I mention the new recent stuff I have been doing with Chris and matt its called urbexing or Urban Exploring, looking at old buildings and taking pictures etc its been pretty good travelling to unknown parts of the area looking at some really nice buildings
pretty cool but its a shame that 28dayslater.co.uk closed the forums a few days ago
so we need to find a new home oh and the fact petrol has rose means its going to cost more to travel to these places too.
Been doing a few calculations and its costing roughly £8 (50 miles to and from college) with the rise in price its soon not going to be worth going to college the prices are set to rise to 1.50 in august too so nah I’ll probably stop driving then. I’ll get some little bike thing or something, something has really got to give.
House prices can’t afford a car let alone a house. So yeah end of had enough college work has seriously got me down I did 4 assignments this week and the flash drive decided to do “WRITE ERROR” AND MESS UP give up now.
