Driving trip to Washington and Oregon states. Weather not as good as hoped, but still a fun time. Actually got 11.6 L/100km for the entire trip (petrol V8 of course).
(Sorry folks, but I can't figure out how to get the NAS cars to do Imperial mpg. The figures always sound a lot worse when quoted to a much smaller gallon.)
Travelled down to Padstow, Cornwall, to enjoy Wifey's Christmas pressy at famous Cornish fish restauranteur tomorrow. Just shy of 300 miles, non stop, with several prevailing roadworks 50 mph limits, but otherwise steady 75mph. Including two tours of the town to find parking spot, 24.6mpg. For a 5.0 SC, not bad, pleased with that! Here's to good wine, excellent 'ticker friendly' food and a few days away with my long suffering wife - child free!!

Just multiply by 1.2, or 1.20094993 if you want to be pedantic.
Changed the water elbows on my leaking Tartarini LPG regulator - hopefully the solves the lake windermere impression under the car in the mornings - oh yes ... and stops me blowing a head gasket.
