Interesting watching prices tumble, I have no real idea re why the prices have shot down of late we saw them pick up a tad a few months ago, but if you're running a 335i or something more uneconomical its a noce bonus I guess

I could discuss migrants but I'll just be slated as an AHole.

There's something wrong in the World when people travel from Afghanistan or Syria to England and pass through all other countries along the way. I don't doubt that these people need help. Neighboring countries should be helping these people more.
there is something seriously wrong in the world when people are put in a position where they must risk the lives of their families in the hope of a better life or more simply not to die.

So far the UK has had 4,866 applications for asylum of which 85% accepted. They are going to limit this number to 1,000 going forward. Not bad considering the responsibility Europe and USA has towards this.

Btw Germany expects to take in between 800k - 1m this yr alone. Turkey has taken in over 2m.

I'm not having a go or trying to be an ass but i can't get past this ignorance that we are taking in all these people when we are not.

I've just come back from Germany where diesel prices changed hourly!

Drive past the same petrol station a few times in one day and it had 3 different prices for diesel!

On my last night there i drove to the hotel, noticed a Shell selling diesel at €1.05.9 and thought, "cheapest i've seen all day, will up there on my way out first in the morning"

Next morning, it was €1.10.9!!!

Just come back from Greece and there are huge fluctuations even between petrol pumps, would jump as much as 5-8cents in the space of a mile
