Diesel (and petrol) went up 25% here (Belgium) in the last 3-4 months. I work on a refinery and the tight gits won't give me a discount
something i've been meaning to ask you for a while now bomberesque, why exactly did you move to belgium? surely there are nicer places to live? then again, you could do alot worse.
After tasting Belgian beer it's about fourth on my list. If a lot of people speak English as well as Mr Johnson ('cos I don't speak Flemish) it jumps up to probably second. Or at least higher than England.

When you coming to "test" the local Yorkshire ale Mr Pog Dants?
Don't bother going into Leeming for a pint, it's a shithole with a pie factory and an expensive furniture store. Old black swan in Bedale if you're taking the missus out for a pint of coke, unless she's the type of lady that ignores her pregnancy and carries on with the tabs and lager, but I rather doubt that. Good pint of sheep in the waggon and horses (also bedale), proper old man pub though, you'll get stared at when you walk in. I'd not be surprised if you just keep your drinking to the naafi though, its VERY local around Leeming.*
The naafi's shit, it's hardly ever open so I've never been in. I drink at home mostly. I've been to the Black Swan I think, which is nice during the day but I'd not venture into Bedale at night (especially as some of the lads got into a bit of a scrap last night). I still want to go to the Black Sheep bistro though. Maybe now I've finished for Christmas.
He's already said he's not happy at the price of petrol, duuuh. And he's merkin, so probably drinks shit fizzy stuff thats .3% abv and gets wasted on a four-pack.
