Shell made profits of $7.8bn (£3.9bn) in the first three months of the year, up from $6.9bn a year ago.

I threw a real sweary fit when I heard that today. Here we all are, getting stiffed by the Government and the Oil Companies and they have the audacity to put that out! Bloody Rob Dogs! :evil:

The company I work for spends more than that in the same time period and doesn't make a penny!
But they have some really good toys!  :dance:

Is  a bit of a mick take making such huge profits. Hopefully they will spend more on alternative fuels and power supplies. Got to fill my car tomorrow, not looking forward to the costs!
