Didja know, cat owners live far longer than dog owners.

Mr. Koch, eh? I wonder if he's any relation to the famous Mr. Koch who competed against Louis Pasteur in the late 1800s. The one who found lots of thingies against different bacteria...

Thingies = word I've forgotten... :(

VACCINATIONS!

That's nice. Some company already started building a plant in the northern US to produce refinable oil from waste last year. I read about it in one of my trade publications.

Some crazy farmers tried to hold a strike outside one of the main oil placey thingies that sends petrol to lots of petrol stations around the UK...it failed miserably.

Now Asda (what you guys probably know of as Wal*Mart) is the first place in the whole of Britain to lower it's prices to below 90p. :)

All the other supermarkets will follow just for the competetion (you know how they get), which will force petrol prices down ever more.

Thank god! Cheap petrol again!

Yah, at some places I've heard they sell gas. I've never seen one around here though.

Every Wal-Mart in town that I've been to (5) has a gas station.

Every single supermarket over here has a petrol station. And then there's the 3 or 4 petrol stations you find in each town. About 15 in each city.

That's a lot of petrol stations. And it's usually the supermarkets who have the lowest prices.

Of course the supermarkets have the lowest prices. Their survival isn't even close to dependant upon profit from gas sales.

Yah, they use cheap gas to lure more people there, who then give them their profit from groceries, or mass amounts of consumer goods, in the case of Wal-Mart.

They still have the regular, plus and premium grades or similar?

The ones around here have the same grades as any other gas stations.

Well thank god they've got some kind of sense. Thanks to them petrol stations everywhere are starting to lower their prices. We've gone from over 95p to around 87p in the space of a night.
