    My Mistake!

    Petrol prices at the pump were $2.80 to $2.97 a US Gallon. In September

    1 US gallon = 3.785 ltrs

    $2.80 / 3.785 = 74 cents a Litre

    74 cents a Litre = 37 pence a litre

    UK Gallon = 4.546 litres

    37 pence a litre X 4.546 = £1.68 a UK gallon

        I was apologising for getting the price of petrol in the US too low. not too high.

          It's a bit worrying when our resident carpenter is not good with figures.

          Could lead to lopsided furniture.

                      Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion,

                      C beams glittering in the darkness near the Tannhauser Gate...
                      I cut and pasted a good one out of a war book online last week, can't find the site now .
