Never thought I'd be better off with oil instead of gas...

...but it's rapidly looking that way, as the BBC News web site is
saying how high gas prices might spark a global recession.
Last time I checked, heating oil was available (1000 litres) at
29.34p.

Talking to my father this morning, he has just spent £500 on oil that
would
last him til the middle of January. I know he doesn't shop around, but
does
that sound rather a lot for a 4-bed house?
Yes.
£500/worth would last us about 4 to 5 months in a large, exposed 5 bed
house.
£700 worth lasts all year and sometimes up to 18 months here (large five
bedroomed house exposed, etc.)
Gas is still cheaper than oil.
