Petrol prices around here are lower now than they have been for many
years, if the price went up by 20cpl the price would still be low
compared to a few years ago.

Last Tuesday, I went up to the museum, the price of petrol on Caloundra
Road was˙ $1.53 so I thought that I'd fill up on the way home but, in
the afternoon it had gone up to $2.11. On Wednesday, I had to go to
Minyama, a bit further up the Sunshine coast, the price there a few Km
away was $1.53, around here, it's $1.99, in the Caboolture area it's
$2.11. Makes no sense, it looks like a lot of profiteering is going on.

2 of our cars use 95 and the price keeps going down, $1.68 last time I filled up the Merc, Porsche gets 98 and even that is getting cheaper although not for much longer.

My son and his girlfriend just bought a 5.6mt Stabicraft, so far I've
only been out in it once and I'm very impressed, very stable smooth ride
and lots of fishing space.
We were supposed to go out last Saturday to target some Whiting but she
was crook and there was a few thunderstorms around with lots of
lightning so it didn't happen.

Lol, even mate #1 is looking at fuel prices for his Genesis, it uses 98 octane.. (shudder) I'm watching the diesel price, as I've just got home
from the block, and now have to go back in 3 days, so @ 60-65 litres
round trip. I normally keep 60L of both diesel and unleaded up the block
for the tractor and the air conditioner respectively. Gets fucking hot
at times :-)

Yeppers. WA have some 'strange' laws regarding some of the outdoor
sports. (before you blow up, Clocky, i neither agree or disagree with
the following...)
WA have (last year) just created what can only be described as draconian rules on firearms, and now, general fishing from a boat. Wont bore you
to tears re the gun rules (that were bought in well before Bondi)
but the latest fishing rules are, imho, insane. (And i thought banning garfish was bizarre!) 2 things stand out:
1: if you fish from a boat, between Augusta and Kalbarri, you need to
change what you do. (in our case, no bottom fishing for snapper, dhuie, others like bald chin grouper.) Now it's non-stop trolling for southern bluefin tuna, Spanish Macks.. demersal fishing from a boat banned for
nearly 3 years?)˙ Seems to me that the bag limits were good enough (2
fish per person/license per day), but the WA govt now dont think so, but wont provide the proof...
2: If you are a commercial fisherman, you need to sell your boat, sack
your crew, or move to another area. (Amazingly, a bit like what Andrews
did to contracted cleaners!)˙ North's no good, as the catch up there has been halved. South's no good, as everyone from Perth is heading that
way, and the locals down south are already arcing up that the boat ramps
are full well before sunrise. Dont know what the WA people are going to
eat at the local fish shop... snapper/dhuie is their standard, like shark/flake is in Vic, and Spanish mack is in Qld.
Apparently the WA govt have taken a read of the Dan Andrews/Jacinta
Alien handbook: "it's all about the science", but cant provide it when asked. The whole story is available on google. Just look for "demersal ban"

Still have your glass boat?
pulled the pin, but have spent a motza refurbing the house after so many years of neglect, I'm now thinking/dreaming of a 2nd place on Patterson river with a jetty. Plonk boy in there, he pays rent, I go fishing! Love fishing, and the kingfish at the heads go off bigger and better each
year, but... but... (got the land tax for the block today..) Fuck!

understand strict bag limits but to ban it completely is nuts.

According to our communist state govt only the filthy rich can afford a second property so its their intention to take all that filthy money
from them and give it to their union comrades, the poor cunts are
struggling on their $350k pa wages they will be getting paid to work on
the suburban rail loop.

I presume they (apparently) know what they're doing, but to just wipe
out 1/2 the commercial fishing industry with no consultation and no compensation ??? Sounds familiar, dont it?

Spot on. Land tax bill is $2800. Because I worked hard. Never paid land
tax till 3-4 years ago. Started @ $900 pa. Thieving fucking dogs. Hope
Dan Andrews had a super-stroke and the cunt is now a vegetable in a wheelchair, where the highlight of his day is playing with his shit.

I'm regional and paid $1.64 this morning.
Still had half a tank but at the rate I go through fuel best to get it
while the getting is good.
I topped up yesterday, $1.66 IIRC. Had over 1/3rd of a tank so only
managed to squeeze $40 in. My consumption has halved since buying a
hybrid. I average sub 4 cpl these days.

yep. heard something on 7's early news about $3.00 a litre. wonder what
that does to diesel? $3.50?.. and I thought $2.38 for diesel a couple of years ago was murderous... cunts.like the supermarkets, there is no

That's not all that flash really. We get high 5's out of the Sorento,

1 trip this morning 10km trip average 4.2, another 20km 4.2 out, 4.6
back. I can get 0 l/100 real time, in fact in the usual traffic jam
going into Caloundra in the morning I can get ~3km using no petrol at all.

I don't do many kms so the price of fuel by itself isn't a big deal for

No doubt that its all going to be a major pita.
The servo closest to my home (711) went up 20cpl overnight but the servo
I filled up at last night (Apco) was still $1.65 for 91 when I drove
past this morning.
For me the only positive to EV's is that they use locally generated electricity and don't rely on imported fuel.
As you say its very likely that fool Trump has shot himself in the foot,
his attempt to gain access to Iranian oil may result in no one wanting/needing it anymore.

Iran is not selling a lot of oil. Sanctions on Iran, remember. IIRC, Iran sells 1.5 million barrels of oil daily
grand scheme of things, Iran?s sales are relatively minuscule. Want to
screw China over? Just blow up Kharg Island and Iran?s exports go to zero.

It's˙ not Iran's oil that is the problem, the problem is that the
Straits of Hormuz are effectively closed cutting off Kuwait, Qatar etc.
This is what is having a major effect. One tanker has been set on fire (luckily empty) and the insurance rates if you want try getting through
are USD450 per day.

For me the only positive to EV's is that they use locally generated
electricity and don't rely on imported fuel.

Well aware of that but oil is Iran?s sole source of revenue. Take out Kharg island and Iran?s revenue drops to zero. That would make Iran desperate and liable to react rather badly. I suspect that?s why the US is leaving well enough alone.

It's˙ not Iran's oil that is the problem, the problem is that the
Straits of Hormuz are effectively closed cutting off Kuwait, Qatar etc.

oil shortages or petrol prices.
The US will be staying away from Iran's oil and its infrastructure
because they won't want to damage the prize that they crave and the sole purpose of the attack.\\
