Finally...

Regular unleaded gasoline has topped diesel fuel here. $2.99 for RUG, $2.94 for Diesel. Not that I am happy about the proce of diesel being 2.94, but it is about time gas is where it needs to be, higher than diesel!

Over here, for years diesel was cheaper than petrol. Diesel technology improved massively in the 90's, and our lovely Chancellor raised the tax on diesel because of course it became more popular.

The real annoying thing is that if I buy SVO and pay the tax on it as I'm required to, it works out to be more expensive than buying DERV from the pump.

Sometimes I hate this country.
