In order to save money I've been strickly sticking to the speed limits, no drifting a little bit over any more for me. And it has made a difference, my mileage has increased by about 5%. I've also noticed that the roads are a bit quieter than they were last year and there seems to be an increase in the number of people pottling along at 50 miles a hour, I don't know if this is really so or just a bit of obsevation basis by me. 5% improvement in the miles I get isn't really going to cut it though I just paid for my first £50 full tank of petrol today, (our car takes about 42 litres) this time last year I was paying about £37 each time I filled up. The car is pretty good for mpg it can do about 425 on a full tank, unfortnately I drive 460 miles a week to get to work and back. It's not good, not good at all.

700th
This is my 700th published post, I've been blogging for just over three years now. My rate of blogging had decreased significantly. I guess partly because I don't want to make you all feel sick with envy by blogging about wedded bliss day in and day out. Come to think of it I don't want to make myself sick either :)
