Welcome ak69! So, just how big is Guernsey? I used to live on Guam (512 sq kilometers) and I put 45,000 miles on a new truck in 3.5 years. Pictures of the countryside would be nice also :)

Around here we get all our gas for free from a place called Taco Bell.

When we have to pay for it the going rate is about $2.25 per US gallon.

If my math is correct, I think that translates to about 1.25 GBP per UK gallon. Could that be right?
