Not very interesting - but very expensive nonetheless!
However, I always maintain that it's worth spending a little while shopping around.
I've just phoned four suppliers (had 8 on the list!), and the price difference is interesting:
For 1,000 litres, different companies quoted me thus:
£378.53, £366.98, £362.78 and £356.48.
The cheapest was after a little haggling 
Still, potentially saved £20, which can't be bad

Makes you nostalgic for the barmaid pictures
My life was in tatters because of my
obsession with the Okey-Cokey.
But I turned myself around and that's
what it's all about!

I haggle for oil prices every time I shop for it Simon, you can get them to price drop
 I enjoy a glass of red wine each night for its health benefits. The other glasses are for my exceptionally witty comebacks, sarcasm, and flawless dance moves.

Everyone is talking about the closing ceremony at the Olympics and what was their favourite bit.
I just spoke to Nick Griffin, his favourite bit is today when they all fcuk off back home.
