its amazing how much petrol very from place to place when we were onholiday the range was from 92 pence to 104 per liter.
i remember my parents putting a tenner in the car and that would do for a week.we spent 45 quid a week on petrol as it is.

Wow, petrol is really expensive in the UK! We're at about AU$1.15 a litre. About a third of the price.

It's one of hte most expensive places certainly here: mind you, I'm sure they're using all these taxes to pay for environmentally-friendly schemes, aren't they? Evil Mind
