Why your fuel is SO expensive!

But how does it stand up to stone chips?.....and what if it gets banged whilst he's in Tesco's?.....does he get 'swirls' on his silverwork?

I once flew back from Nice in business class. I thought it was pretty good until I looked into first class when the door was left open. Amazing; thick, fully reclining leather seats and every one was occupied by a person in white robes. They had got on at the previous airport.

I had my meal on a proper bone china plate with silver cutlery; goodness knows what they had.....and my meal wasn't just tipped out of a plastic tray.

Roll on the Hydrogen car!

...at first, when I saw all the white robes, I thought something had happened and I'd died and gone to heaven.........but then I realised I would also have had a leather seat!

Just found this:

The world's biggest oil exporter, Saudi Arabia, is using its rejuvenated oil riches to build four cities. Projects like these are designed to burnish the country's image, develop a non-oil economy and generate enough employment to maintain social stability.
One is King Abdullah Economic City, a mega-project on the kingdom's west coast. According to Emaar, a real estate development firm in Dubai, the city will cost $27 billion and be spread across an area three times the size of Manhattan. A contractor who works there said a wide, palm tree-lined boulevard cuts a dozen miles across an ocean of sand and ends at the Red Sea. Construction workers in hard hats are navigating excavators, dredging land and digging foundations for a power plant, a desalinization plant and a port. The project will eventually include an industrial district, a financial island, a university and a residential area, and is expected to house 2 million people.
Despite mega-projects like this, Saudi Arabia is running a budget surplus. It has paid down much of the foreign debt it accumulated in the late 1990s and is adding to its foreign-exchange reserves.

I'll come too; we could open an ice cream parlour. Should do well there; we could do cones with hundreds and millions topping!

The Mr. Whippy man don't come round no more.

Yesterday he was found on the floor of his van covered in hundreds and thousands.

The police reckon he topped himself!
