When we eventually look back on this month, I wonder what we will
remember most, asks Bert Cargill of St Monans Gospel Hall. It has
brought some surprises, and I am not thinking about the weather this
time.
The sharp increase in fuel prices came as an unwelcome surprise,
making a trip to the pumps ever more expensive. This of course was the result of the unwelcome war against Iran. As it progressed, its effects on many Persian Gulf states came as terrible surprise for them, and now for more countries than ever. Perhaps we did not realise how vital the free passage of oil tankers really was.
