Is this working out correct? I've used our British litre and converted in into US gallons. Our fuel is about 85p a litre. Though it does depend on where u get it.

British Fuel:
1 litre (UK): £0.849 a litre Cry

1 gallon(UK) : £3.82 Cry

Now for our American friends, British fuel would cost you the following, (so don't complain too hard next time yr prices go up Wink

).

1 gallon (US) = 3.785 litres (GB)

85 (pence) x 3.785 = £3.21 (For 1 US gallon)

£3.21 x 1.7813 = $5.72 ( For 1 US gallon)

Shocking eh?

Thank God we have a diesel truck.

Any moment, everything can change, Feel the wind on your shoulder, For a minute, all the world can wait, Let go of your yesterday. Can you hear it calling? Can you feel it in your soul? Can you trust this longing? And take control, Fly! Open up the part of you that wants to hide away! You can shine, Forget about the reasons why you can't in life, And start to try, cause it's your time, Time to fly. - H.D., Fly
