I just filled the petrol tank of the Octavia at the local garage. It cost £60. It would have taken more, but I stopped at £60.

For my American friends - this is what you would call a compact family car - and it cost me about $120 to fill it with gas.

I think I need a lie-down....

I've said all along that we Americans really have nothing to complain about. And yet, one hears complaining from us constantly.

As my mother says - 'it's being so cheerful that keeps us going'.

Although her personal creed is to be 'goll as gaccan' - and the higher the petrol prices the more gaccan we hear!
