Had a medical appointment in Ipswich this morning so topped up with petrol in the little car. 244.9 cents a litre for premium however some places have it for 268.9 today.

I used Freedom and got my 4 cents a litre off.

Two weeks ago I filled the Territory at $1:75 litre. Yesterday it was $2:85 litre. International price has only gone up 17 cents a litre so why the dollar rise and the goverment does nothing because they are making to much tax.

Around the Lockyer diesel is averaging 8 cents a litre more than this morning.

One servo has it at 288.9 cents and premium diesel is 295.9 cents.

I expect it will be over the three dollar mark here on the weekend.

On K’Gari or Fraser Island diesel is $3.60 a litre and with the Easter holidays nearly on us a trip up there may be off the cards for some people.

Going to be worse and the government is just racking in more money. Need to look at every kilometre and is the trip needed. Molly’s in hospital Tuesday for 4 or 5 days then rehab for about 10days.

Our little orange Suzuki only uses 4.2 litres to the 100 kilometres so not really noticing it in that yet.

Planning a trip to Hervey Bay in the motorhome shortly but will be able to do that on one tank of juice.

Overall apart from joining everyone complaining it is not really affecting us.

All of our best to Molly for her new knees.
