Para Handy Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 The long-awaited fuel duty rebate of five pence per litre for motorists could at last be just round the corner, with Europe expected to give the derogation the nod by the end of September. So fuel will be up by another 10p by the end of September then http://www.shetlandtimes.co.uk/2011/08/25/wait-goes-on-for-duty-rebate-as-fuel-costs-remain-high Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ll Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 At the Aywick Shop in Yell, petrol is £1.44 a litre and diesel is £1.47 a litre. Diesel at LK is now 150.9 a litre ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klanky Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 Hmmm...there's a fair old assumption that Uk is cheaper than up here. It is, but not by as much as you'd think. Literally a couple of pence a litre in some cases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stilldellin Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 Costs £24 annual fee but the new Santander 123 credit card supposedly gives you 3% off fuel up to max £300 per month. Four petrol stations listed in Shetland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme_Storey Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 Was in Aberdeen on Wednesday 31st August and petrol was 131.9 per litre, but just filled up in Lerwick and it is 150.9 here, today - surely something can be done to rectify the intolerable ripping-off that is clearly taking place?

shetlandpeat Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 Any where remote or off the beaten track seems to be "ripped off". Tis why I ride a bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dratsy Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Turbans are generally worn by the peoples of the Indian sub continent not Libyans, surely the good folks in North Africa have enough to contend with just now without your incorrect racial stereotyping, icepick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
