I cannot remember the date but I thought petrol was getting very expensive when it went over �1 for 4 gallons!

We used to have an all-night petrol pump that dispensed three gallons when you put in a pound note.

I remember my Dad got rid of his Triumph 2500 PI , as 5 star (who remembers 5 star!!?) went from 35 to 37p/gallon.
