we don't go far..but we do take a bloody long time getting there..due to traffic congestion.

apparently the average speed in london is now 8mph:eek:

i would love to go over to canada...toronto is where my wife likes..me..the wild north:)

Roughly 2 cents isn't it?

since 1 pound is a little more than $2?

the canadian dollar is doing well so its pretty much exactly double right now.
2 pounds = 1 dollar.

Have you seen the roads in Britain, CryoCarnage? They dont have far to go but the roads are twisty as fucking shit and crowded like you wouldnt believe!

Last year when I was in the UK, it was about 99p/litre then too. Bit of a shocker to pay $100cdn for a tank of fuel in a 1.6l Fiat.... We are on our way here to that as well.

i was there for 1 day. it was a plane that went form canada to england, and england to poland. I didn't do much driving there (i had no car of course and prolly would have confused me as fuck) but i did noptice the twisty roads. but there didnt seem to be a lot of traffic there when i went:dunno:
All in all, i walked most of the way and i met some hot english girls :devil:

93.9/L:thumbsup:

That's where I fill up, seeing as I live like 2 mins away from that station :D It's right across the road from the SafeWay/Shoppers Drug Mart entrance to North Hill Mall :D

On NON-specials days, it's 95.something/L for reg, and something like 99 for premium (dunno what octane that is tho)
