FUEL WATCH - USE IT !!

[General Disregard]

In UK they are paying about $2.40 per litre, we have a long way to go yet

[LondonTiger]

To be fair, most cars in the UK are 2.0 litres and under, so you do not really notice.

But on the other hand, it costs me $270 AU to park outside the front of my house, $20 AU every time I pass into central london, and insurance is roughly $2500 AU a year. 

Of course, you could opt to use public transport which averages out at $20 a day for a one hour journey to move 10 km. 



On an aside, I was in Madrid the other day.  There are 4 million people and 3 million cars in that city.  NUTS.

Isn't thet Congestion charge ridiculous mate? 20 bucks a day just to drive around the city

We had a diesel when we were there and got 40mpg, that was some consolation

Oh nah, I am still an Aussie.  Just prefer to earn the pound whilst the Tigers do so poorly.

Will be back for the Tigers vs Carlton and Bombers games in my reserved seat, which has not had my backside in it for 8 years
