Extra advice on Driving
I liked Martin's email tips on saving whilst driving (here). However I would also recommend not overtaking so much (for those that MUST get past that car in front even though it's doing a good speed). This uses an enormous amount of fuel. Also, try to avoid accelerating up hill, keep a steady pace and use the down slopes to get back to a reasonable speed.

OK. Firstly, it helps if you are paying attention. Then you won't post in the wrong lane.
Secondly, 'flak' is spelled as I have written it. It's from the German Fliegerabwehrkanone, an aircraft defence cannon.
On topic: 'Flak' used to be a huge variety of carrot I grew in my allotment days.
Indeed, it still is:
