I'm now back into the land of the living after Le Mans and a shed load of working away from home. Anyway, I've only got one deposit for Aviemore so far - do I owe my address to anyone cos I can't seem to find anything outstanding in my PMs?

Wot? That'll be our prices, right enough. Yours must be the princely sum of, I dunno, $1.30 a gallon?

More than twice that around here nowdays, Minty One. $3.50/gallon yesterday for 91 octane (premium), $14 to fill the bike. Still a tad less than what you're paying in the old country I gather, but it's cutting into my sunblock budget.

$3.50! Really! Its about 95p/litre here which is er ...about £4/gallon I think. Costs me about £15 to fill up so I guess that's about $25 (?) Do you need a lot of sunblock or is that a personal question? unsure.gif I just do my nose, but that's still quite a lot.
