Fuel in the Netherlands. €/Euro 2,30 per liter.

The highest I saw today was €/Euro 1.79 a liter in Latvia. I bought some last week for 1.62 - so going up!

I paid 3.85 per gallon, yesterday. Over $80.00 to fill up.

there is about 4 liters in a gallon - so I paid in gallons - $7.16 - and Bit of Hope paid - 9.20

Nuclear power stations not built for war, major disaster threatens upon impact'

"Largest nuclear power plant in Europe Six reactors are lined up in Zaporizhzhya. They are actually six nuclear power plants in themselves, but together they are the largest nuclear power plant in Europe; thirteen times bigger than Borsele. 20 percent of all electricity in Ukraine is generated there. That makes the nuclear power plant an important strategic target for the Russians. When the power can be shut down in a large part of the country, this is a great weapon."

"Nuclear power stations are absolutely not designed to function in a war zone," says nuclear physicist and emeritus professor Wim Turkenburg. He fears an unintended bomb impact on a cooling bath or reactor. "Then a major disaster can happen."

So from earlier reports :
Naval vessel Zr.Ms De Zeven Provinciën departs for NATO fleet association

The air defense and command frigate Zr.Ms. De Zeven Provinciën will leave Den Helder next Sunday. Over the next four months, the naval vessel will join Standing NATO Maritime Group 1 (SNMG1), one of the rapid-deployment fleet groups from NATO's flash force."

'THIS IS CRAZY': Gas hikes, shortages as further record prices loom | Toronto Sun
''GTA gas prices are once again expected to reach record highs at 1.75 a litre, but gas analysts see potential for prices nearing $1.90 a litre in the not-too-distant future.''

“I guess the war in Ukraine is the reason behind the gas price spike,” he said.
Some stations ran out of gas as people stocked up before Thursday morning’s sticker shock.
“It’s difficult to get gas today,” said Natalie Hollinshead, who said it usually costs about $80 to fill her tank.
Now it costs her $100 to fill up''

It's my opinion they're right. I wonder how many of them have been in tears over this. I would bet a lot. What a horrible decision, but one I stand behind.

It has to be an excruciatingly painful decision.

Things can change very fast and most aren't published public.
I do hope they have a plan B!

Who is Boaty McBoatface and how is he/she connected to this invasion?

Boaty McBoatface is was the winner in a public vote to name a new polar research ship in the U.K.
I was replying to a reply on a previous post (lightheartedly) about the fact that the U.K public couldn't be trusted if allowed to vote on NATO action.
You kind of need to see the first post for mine to make sense .

Not sure if it was posted already
“
In a televised speech today, Vladimir Putin called on Russia's neighbors not to escalate the situation in Europe, reports the news agency Reuters.

- We have no evil intentions when it comes to our neighbors. I want to advise them not to escalate the situation, and not to impose any new restrictions, Putin said when he participated in the link during the inauguration of a new ferry.

The president further said that he sees no reason for deteriorating relations, and that Russia's actions should be seen as a response to the actions of other countries.
“


They don’t have evil intentions..right. He apparently forgot that Ukraine it’s their neighbour too. Someone might wanna remind him that.
