Aviation fuels will go up though, so if you fly that'll go up too.

I wonder if this will trickle down to longer term planning, like Willington (Derby) Doesn't get an electricity supply contract (to build a new gas fired power station) or maybe they Will give a license to mine coking coal in Cumbria?

Think I need to start pressing horse shit into bricks and drying it out to use a fuel... :down: Or find a bacteria/fungus that converts it into diesel and kerosene!
