Quote:

Do cars over there use KM or miles for distance and speed?

Well, not being a car owner I am not 100% sure but, from my ageing memory, I believe they use both, on the speedometer there is an outer ring of numbers, I presume MPH, and an inner ring, which I believe is KPH. However, I could be wrong and its the other way around.

One thing I do know, and that is petrol is sold per litre and not by the gallon, I guess that the cost is now so high that the price looks psychologically better in litres than in it does in gallons.

Well, it's frigging hot again (still). Forecast for today was 40° C, apparently we got to 41° earlier this afternoon: Perth weather - local weather forecast

It's crazy - one side of the country is melting while the other side is flooding.
