I dont know that its stepping back in time...maybe the UK just made a mistake in ditching it.

I liked the "time travel" feeling, made everything seem more relaxed somehow, apart from the shock of not knowing what was going on the first time!

Can you imagine the cost of fuel in the UK if we were paying someone to pump it too?

I hadn't realised it jumped last week, we have been rather house bound since our puppy arrived.

Last time we filled up it was still only 77.9.

I cannot get over how much it changes, the gas stations must loose out sometimes if they have purchsed at one price, then they have to reduce it several cents.
