Uptown Houston, $3.99 a gallon for both petrol and diesel. That's 75p a litre give or take :-X

Even CN have picked up on just how tied to China th UK has become, arguing that the Chagos deal, the recent trade trips and trying to defend the Iranian regime only make sense of we're allies of China and by definition, anti American.

But I thought USA was less than UK Gallon More Than US Gallon in capacity.

But just checked 25 Gall tank on my old Pontiac and seems UK is the caller holding only
20.8169 UK Gall

As they say we learn something new every day.

US gallon is obviously still 8 pints but a US pint is only 16 fl oz versus a proper UK pint which is 20 fl oz.

I wonder at what point will the Gulf states get peed off with Iran lobbing ordinance at them and decide to start shooting back?  ???  :-\

Yes the Gulf States have been big spenders on Western military kit over the years.

I think the Saudi air force operates a fleet of Typhoons?  ???

They have Typhoons, Tornados and US built F-15's. Their airforce is larger than the RAF. However, why commit your own forces when the Yanks can take the strain and blame.
