Heard that mate! I just filled up the M with V Power at Shell. And it cost me the same nearly. Sickening. My parents live in Florida, and i've always thought about moving out there. Got my VISA for the US, but just don't know if i want to start a new life!

I work from home, the only thing I need is a net connection, the only reason I didnt give it serious consideration is because of the bad crime in the US, not to mention the whacked out gun culture, the UK in respect still has some to go until it catches the USA up with that thankfully.
