I remember turning out some of my mother's old school papers (she was a math teacher in the 1970s) and finding a problem which started with "If petrol costs 37 pence per gallon...."

I think she said it was 2/11 per gal. (or may have been 3/11) when she started driving! [Linked Image]

Have a look at this thread: Blast from the Past

A new Bedford CA van for £475! (Probably plus purchase tax, the ad doesn't say.)
