Admin Mk2Jo Posted March 14, 2013 Admin Report Posted March 14, 2013 Has the price of fuel affected your motoring hobby at all? Do you think twice now before for going to a show or event?
Admin Vista Posted March 14, 2013 Admin Report Posted March 14, 2013 Yes. Anything like the Lakes tour is completely out of the question from down here. Classic Ford is in doubt too as my fuel bill to get up there and back last year (with Van on trailer) was a shocker.
Admin Mk2Jo Posted March 14, 2013 Author Admin Report Posted March 14, 2013 Okay ... so what do you give up in place if your extended fuel bill? Family days out? Family holidays? Food shopping? Or are you all loaded?
Mrs O/H/C Posted March 14, 2013 Report Posted March 14, 2013 Don't really have family days out unless its car related. Haven't had a family holiday for about 10 years
PaulMags Posted March 14, 2013 Report Posted March 14, 2013 Don't really have family days out unless its car related. Haven't had a family holiday for about 10 years yeah but you did say you'd like to come to malta with us lot
Mrs O/H/C Posted March 14, 2013 Report Posted March 14, 2013 And still plan to do that if finances allow. Need to apply for passports

Admin Vista Posted March 14, 2013 Admin Report Posted March 14, 2013 We have family days out most weekends and often both days. I wouldn't give them up for anything. I'll have plenty if time for car days when my kids are Harry Enfield style sulky teenagers but right now when they still look to me for fun times, I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts. I don't ever go out drinking anymore and quit smoking ten years ago so they count as savings. Fortunately however my 4 year old does seem to enjoy "Daddy's black van"

mk2 mike Posted March 15, 2013 Report Posted March 15, 2013 Fuel prices don't bother me at all. I'd pay whatever they were.

livewire7116 Posted March 18, 2013 Report Posted March 18, 2013 Brean cost me 60ltrs in 58 miles of optimax, so have to keep my trips local or on a trailer
Admin Mk2Jo Posted March 18, 2013 Author Admin Report Posted March 18, 2013 Its really made me think about whether the journeys are necessary or not not something I've ever had to do before
Admin Vista Posted March 18, 2013 Admin Report Posted March 18, 2013 Its really made me think about whether the journeys are necessary or not not something I've ever had to do before I can raise you on that to I've been taking the bus And just as I start to use the local bus service they announce that they're axing it and replacing it with a bus to the local hospital! Useful for the 0.1% of the time that I'm sick or dying, but about as welcome as a fart in a dry suit for the rest of the time!!

Hmmm, a few years to go before that happens.......................and I reckon by then you'll need to be about 120 to qualify for it!
