Readers will have noticed that fuel prices have risen to the highest levels since 2012. According to the Ministry for the Environment the average price of diesel is now 1.46 euros and petrol 1.54 euros. This is due to world oil prices climbing for various political and economic reasons (OPEC reducing production, China wanting more oil, Venezuela - which has more reserves than Saudi Arabia - sinking into chaos).
Analysts do not expect much reduction in the near future, so we will all be leaving the car at home more and mowing the lawns less!
