Yep, I know that.. cheaper than water, as they say! :lol:

Yap. But all you have to worry is the water. Dont buy bottled water which doesnt have a known brand if your in a remote area. Some bottled waters are just came from what they call baladia water and just processed. Baladia water are let just say a recycled water. I heard it from one of my saudi friends.

:D:D:D

@Eihctir, you look like a high-class financial professional. And there is no way anyone can stop you from overspeeding. So what you have done is to add a fixed charge to the per Liter rate of petrol to make a per month budget....lolz

And to keep yourself below 120, you've got a diesel enginer...:D:D:D

You've made my day mate :top: ....thanks.

Eihctir
