£1.50 a litre by the end of the month IMO. Holiday lol more like flight to safety.

If you're risk averse then buy now, though I personally don't think sterling is going to tank due to a hung parliament.

You should have bought yesterday.

Both the Euro and Sterling are in turbulent waters, so nobody can give you a definitive answer.

Personally, I would buy now.


There is an old Chinese curse - "May you live in interesting times." These are "interesting" times.

If you've not noticed, the Dollar has already dropped quite a bit over the last 48 hours.

Was around $1.52/£ on Tues, now its $1.47/£

Interesting thank all.

Much as I wish i could step into my time machine and buy them a few days ago I cant.

So buy now is the opinion.

I'm buying about £800 worth so a few cents here or there wont make much difference??
