Just to add insult to injury, a there are 1.2 US gallons to 1 UK gallon, so you get more for your money.
I know it's all relative though and what is expensive to you is dirt cheap to me, at current exchange rates your gas prices seem to average £1.50 per gallon. :cry2:
What most people don't know is that Europe is so congested that you can literally walk to a town away in probably 20 minutes to a half hour and if you ride your bicycle it's even less. So your fuel prices aren't that bad. Live in the country in Canada or the US where you have to drive a minimum of 1-2 hours at time to even go grocery shopping it adds up in the end fuel is actually all relatively priced the same except maybe in Bahrain.
Also the amount of acres that are farmed <Canada and US> as compared to in Europe are very different .So fuel bills are probably the same when compared to each operation in the end.
Apples to bananas are hard to compare.
