Hi Tom

as you quote my name :-)

You have it so good over there. As Britt writes, gas here is over 10 bucks a
gallon. It's got the stage where one starts questioning whether one needs to
make some of the longer journeys. What with congestion charging in London,
and extorionate tax rises on all but the most boring cars, motoring is fast
becoming no fun over here.

Enough to make you want to get pissed regularly - purely for medicinal
purposes of course :-)

Best

Francis
