  i read this morning that energy is in such short supply that we are due for shortages and blackouts.
  
  so naturally one would assume that prices would rise.
  
  then this evening it is announced that brutish gas are cutting their prices by 7%, other companies expected to follow suit.
  
  where is the logic?
  
  i notice that they do this just as the usage starts to fall though, happened a year or so ago.

  Its to do with contracts Howard. We are using gas bought at contract prices agreed many months ago.

  Bought some fuel up at the Whitfield money-making place last night. Whoaaaa!!!! Is someone 'aving a larf, or are those prices normal?

  Diesel prices : 114.9 ppl (Tesco) vs 110.9 (Morrisons)
  
  Which would indicate that Tesco are 'aving a larf, Sid!
  True friends stab you in the front.
