mattleonard Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Petrol costs about £1.30/litre, that's just a fact. Tackart is of the opinion that it's not that expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydotcom Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 So a 5 year old who's just got a new bike for xmas, with his little stabilisers attached, you expect to have to wait until his parents can take him to a cycle trail in the countryside before even learning to ride??? Sure, they're a great day out, but where did you learn to ride a bike? Probably on the pavement or road outside your home like everyone else! Any adult who lets a 5yr old child who has just learned how to ride a bike, do so on a main road then their parenting skills need to be questioned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tackart Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Tackart is of the opinion that it's not that expensive. It isn't, there was a thread about petrol prices being too high and i posted my views on there Here is the thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although there are plenty of parents who's skills should be, as you say, questioned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hots on Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 It isn't, there was a thread about petrol prices being too high and i posted my views on there Here is the thread £1.30/ltr is "expensive" for some people but not for others, it depends of course on ones personal finances doesn't it? But there's no doupt the price has risen sharply in a short period of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Any adult who lets a 5yr old child who has just learned how to ride a bike, do so on a main road then their parenting skills need to be questioned Who mentioned main road? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there's no doupt the price has risen sharply in a short period of time. Well I earn about £14,000 a year and do about 300 miles a week in my car. I enjoy driving and compared to a lot of other things, such as fizzy pop, washing up liquid and alcohol, £1.30 for a litre is relatively cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydotcom Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Who mentioned main road? As I said in the above post looks like I misread yours, main roads were mentioned in someone else's post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
