I was putting 2 stroke in my Lambretta for (I think) about 2 bob a gallon in 1966, 20 Embassy were (again I think) about 1s 11p, I got £4 10s a week as a shipping clerk......

Hey ho, those were the days, used to be able to go out every night, smoke, drink, pay me mum, and run the lambo (see above), even saved some! Try that now!!!

:lol:

I started driving in 1978 - was about 35p a gallon then I think

:lol: same here rodders...

I remember with £20 : you could fill the car up go out for a meal and a drink!!

mmm £40 today and tank is full (from 1/4 tank)

If my salary went up at that rate I should be on £250000 per year :shifty:
