Sure, it is a lot Eric, but it started me thinking.
You paid £1.60 for one litre of fuel.
Last week I paid 10 euros ( £9 ) for 10 litres of Gin
The previous week my wife paid less than half of the cost of your fill up, to Ryanair to fly 1000 miles back to U.K.
There are indeed many perspectives on the cost of fuel.
