RE: Urban Calculation
A surveyt carried out only two years ago found that in some locations like large cities such as Leeds in Yorkshire and most University towns and cities that the closer to the city center you get where more students, singles, yuppies, and high density housing is, served by these 24 hour Tesco stores etc that in fact the amount of food kep by the urnanites is less than 1/2 a days worth. Indeed a footnote reported that whilst for example village dwellers kept on average 4 litres of milk to hand, when you get to the suburbs it fell to 1 litre but in the city center areas many apartment dwellers bought only small 500 mm cartons of milk on a daily basis. Similar findings were made with loaves of bread and bread making supplies.

There appears to be a corrolation that the more fast food shops, cafes, diners, convenience stores etc you have in an area the less food people keep.

It'll get you everywhere in the UK!!!

No Sir it will not, unless you are driving on normal quite every day conditions, but if you have police and military traffic controls, crashes, refugees, crap weather your fuel will be gone before you leave the home counties if you get stuck in crawling traffic.
