[Icon][Icon]Save the planet, use the A29

• Post categories: Omni, My Life

I usually expect to get 400 miles out of a tank of petrol. A little more right after it's been serviced, a little less when it needs to be.

I refuelled at the weekend and then spent the week driving to & from my course. Today I finally had to refuel, when the fuel light came on after 430 miles. By the time I made it to a petrol station, I had done 460 miles on on tank of petrol. If every car could get that much of an increase in mileage, we could stop bothering about the Kyoto treaty [Smiley]

The A29 is a nice road. Unlike the A27, which I have to continue the journey on half the time. The A27 is a close runner-up to the M25. About the best thing I can say for it is that it at least supplies a small amount of mental stimulation: There are a bunch of roundabouts in quick succession. The right line of the carriageway moves faster than the left, but the left lane moves quicker at roundabouts.

Deciding when and if to swap lanes is about the only thing that keeps my brain going some days. I keep an eye on the other drivers and I generally win against the sheeple who pick a lane and stick to it. It gives me something to do.
