My learning curve...

When it comes to petrol prices, the one story that stuck is my dear mother that went from Wolseley to Cape Town for a night on the town with her dad's Fairlane 500. They jammed six people in the car (well, not really jammed, more like seated six comfortably...) and each gave 10c for petrol. So 60c got you about 250km in a Fairlane 500 in the 60's... :dropjaw: Where did things go wrong? :facepalm:

Ja those were the days - also heard of similar stories.
My dad wiill still speak of the time when I was born.
And a few weeks later the family of 5 made the trip to Caledon to my grandparents to show off "the new kid on the block" and it cost him R1 each way in his Morris Minor.

That was 1979...
