If they slow our roads down the revenue at the fuel pumps will fall.
Our Gas is something like 60% tax, that is quite a hit.
My fuel bill has dropped by a third since my Hyundai blew up.
It was achieving 53MPG on Diesel, Now I’m averaging 75MPG on Petrol.
With the push towards “Green” revenues are going to fall.

Dressing in layers has always been essential ‘ere.
Heating in ‘Public’ places has always been dire and there is almost no A/c in summer. You get used to having 3 layers and a rain coat at all times.
Except between May and July...2 layers and a rain coat. :D

Yes, well, living on an island in the North Atlantic ocean would tend to be a little chillier than living on a continent that spans from the pole to the equator! ;o])

I watch British TV shows and wonder why folks aren’t freezing. But I moved 130 miles north and though it’s considered high desert, and has high temps July and August, I’m having a tough time getting acclimated. I just can’t get warm!
