Rising costs re-visited

In a previous post, I mentioned that petrol cost £1.10 a litre, and that we could expect it to rise to £1.50 by September. Last night I filled up at the Esso station in Haywards Heath, and it cost me £1.20 a litre, so we've got some way to go, but the general upward trend is pretty clear. In the same period, I've seen a litre of Soya Milk rise from £1.00 to £1.39 in Sainsbury's, and the car parking charge at Haywards Heath station rise from £4.50 per day to £6.00. I'm due to be paying more for my road tax this year, up from the current £170 to £205, which at 20-odd % isn't that bad, considering that my Soya Milk has gone up 39% in the last 3 months. I know that inflation in the UK is at an 11-year high, but I do feel that they've forgotten to carry the 1... 38% would be more like it, 3.8% is just a flight of fancy.
