Im VERY aware of the difference between driving like a tree hugger and wearing an old fashioned sea diving boot on your right foot.

Last week I was running late for an important meeting I COULDNT be late for and completed 105 miles of motorway driving in 54 minutes (doing 70mph ) and nearly emptied a full tank!!!!! Couldn't believe it!

Lucky the usual traffic jam didn't materialise to stop you in your tracks... that's always what seems to happen to me when I'm rushing to get somewhere. Or I get stuck behind a selection of caravans/horse boxes

I don't like lard on it's own... Stick it in some pastry and wrap it round some chicken and ham and bingo, you have a pie!
