Omobono Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Just as you thought things couldn't get any worse , Steam packet announced its increased fares due to fuel price increases it is up to 50% in some areas and will not only increase the cost of living here but will be a massive disincentive for anyone coming on holiday , I suppose it had to happen but such a significant rise !
