Hi Terry & Patricia, Glad to hear you're enjoying the "old" country. Make the most of the good weather, from what I remember it seldom lasts very long. I don't know the price of fuel down under - here in Cyprus we pay the equivalent of around 75 pence per litre and insurance and road fund license are cheaper too. I'm not into cider but am looking forward to a few pints of Marstons Pedigree at the end of July when we'll be going to Derbyshire. Enjoy your break mate I'm sure you've earned it.
Best regards,
Roger
