When we went to town the other day, we noticed that traffic is way down. I guess people don't burn gas unless they really have to.

Definately, Moonglum! The price actually went down here yesterday; running on just fumes since Tuesday, I'm glad I waited those extra couple of days. I paid $3.91 per gallon yesterday! Whoo-hoo! (eye-roll)

I paid $3.46 per gallon today. MG, your prices are nothing short of frightening. My sympathies!

Well we hit $1.40 a Litre the other day, so if you take Moonglums Litre to Gallon conversions and factor in our currency rate, which is 0.953998 to the U.S Dollar and 0.487230 against the English Pound you'd come up with a figure of ........................ a heck of a lot of money I'd imagine.

This question has been asked before, but I have a feeling the answers could change with the seasons:
What's the oddest thing in your vehicle right now (besides yourself)?
Mine: one of those litter-picker-upper gadgets. Love it, I do. So handy.

A trash-picker-upper thingy? That's kinda cool, Siren.
The oddest thing in my vehicle? Hhmmmm....I'll have to look; my car is a receptacle for weird objects - I never know what I'll come across in there.
About a month ago I would have said a forest of hundreds of tiny plants in my trunk that had grown from the seeds of some-plant-or-other I transported home last fall. They've since shriveled to nothing though, and to my knowledge nothing has sprouted in their place.

I have a thingymebob. It's about 18 inches long and has a thumb-rest at one end. It's slightly curved with a distinct taper towards the handle. I don't know where it came from, it just turned up one day. One of those things that 'might come in handy'. I was going to throw it away, but ended up throwing it in the back. Where it has stayed ever since, leaning jauntily against the flux-capacitor.
Apart from the street map of Beijing, I also have Issue #1 of 'A Flight Of Fancy'.
(I think the oddest thing in my vehicle is probably me)

Ummmm probably the registration sticker on the window, circa 2005, which reminds me, better attach the new one .......... when I get around to it.

LOL! No wonder you and Gams get along so well.
