It is a little insane, my budget for molotov cocktails is horrendous.

Gas may not be cheap but Hay is not easy work.

And the "exhaust emissions" control and disposal is also a nasty chore . . : )

Riding on your buggy, looking all the time at the exhaust pipe . . . bad engineering, I'd say : )

Ohhh for an Emoticon which shows somebody banging their head against a brick wall!

My car has is 14.5 gallon tank and it costs me £52.00 to fill up!

At today's exchange rate, thats $93.00.........

That's right folks, read it and weep :shock:

Not that the Petrol Companys are making all the money, as IIRC, 80% went to the Government, although I don't mind being corrected if thats wrong!

I ordered my grapes to make wine with today. I don’t have a price yet because the Produce Store does not know what shipping is going to cost yet and can’t get a guest-a-ment. I bet it’s going to drive the price up a bunch over last year. :angry:

In about 2 years I can drowned my woes with the wine. :partyman:

I paid $2.45 for regular last night here in MN. I can't really complain though, I saw a BBC article on how are friends across the pond are paying over 90p per liter, which works out to about $6.20/gallon!

But they also have a Public Trans system.

Oh yeah? Tried going anywhere in the UK by public transport lately?

90.0p per litre when I left last week. That's $6.25 per gallon. :cry:

In the San Francisco Bay Area where I am at the moment, the cost varies from about $2.78 to $2.98, depending on the grade. And the sun shines here! :lol:

Beer's not so good, though. :cry:

I have thought about the mess "they" most likely have caused, let along the loss of life and injuries.

The beer problem here is a real problem, it can be very difficult to find a good ale over here. That is why I make my own
My gas is hovering around $2.70 for the cheap stuff.
