Gas Pains

I used to fill my tank for a dollar Now, paying forty bucks makes me holler I need a loan from the bank Just to fill my thirsty tank If this continues I'll live in squalor

Bet the governments are working out maximum tax on recharging electric cars, and no doubt have devious plans in place already. Great poem Robert, All the best for the new year. Harry.

G'day Bob ... you might have to round up a horse and hitch it to a cart. But then the price of hay will go sky high. We just can't win with a bloated public service Bob - Lindsay
