Fuel Check Stops

Ok, as I run on the expensive normal stuff, I may be a bit nieve here, but..
If you go into Tesco and buy vegi oil you have paid the vat on it anyway.
I didnt think this was 0%vat as it is not strictly speaking a food stuff.
I could be wrong, but I prefer cola to a pint of oil anyday!!!

Tesco's now sell biodiesel at some petrol stations - its actually only a 5% bio mix and is tax paid - not sure of the price as I havent actually used it.

Its not the VAT - its the fuel duty.

So you are supposed to pay
fuel tax
Value added tax
road tax
income tax
capital gains tax
and any other go***mo*******ng tax.
And here is me thinking we put enough back into the system as it is!
What a fool I am.

What will happen when they release the hydrogen fuel cell technology?
Will we be paying £140/L on water?


Sorry about that, am trying to sort out my tax return as we speak, for some reason I am a tad on edge when it comes to Mr Tax Man!!

and tyre disposal charges...

Some garages also charge £5 for disposal of oil engine, after raping you of £50 to change it on a new car (mentioning no names, Toyota dealers...... )

I don't charge though!

I got 25L in a tub outside, the first 25L blocked the drains, so I thought I better wait a bit befor I chuck this lot down.

Just in case you wanted some for the bit of shed that is still visable!!

And in case you wanted to know how I have so much, I used to own a frumpteara with a bit of an oil leak.
So I shot it!
