I know what you Mean.....

I bought My Volkswaggen based on its fuel comsumption in MPGs.
I buy fuel in litres and know good from bad ecconomy ( can tell when the wife has been driving by how much more fuel than normal is being burned ) and keep track of it in kms but these are nonsence numbers to me untill I convert back to imp gallons and miles...

Well I had to pay £1.30 ltr today  :'( when is it going to stop.

On the plus side I did find water on our land today its not oil but still exciting all the same. All the test say its drinkable apart form the Coliform bacteria which needs 48 hrs to culture.
