I don't think that it had increased that much the last time I visited in 2004.

ETA Irritatingly, in the UK fuel is priced as pence/litre. This morning I bought 29.30 litres @ 120.9p/l = £35.42.

I think that I have calculated this correctly, but that works out at $7.32/US gal. (£1 = $1.60)

I don't drive very often.
