Gas up takes on a new meaning

One of our American staff sends this vulgar but amusing comment on having had to pay as much as US$3.20 for unleaded regular gas.

In the UK we are now paying US$8.40 for the equivalent of a US gallon. One Imperial gallon = US$ 9.70.

Of course on both sides of the Atlantic we are both paying much the same price for gas, we just pay approx 75% of the pump price in taxes.
