Hey, you're beating the UK now! Not by much, mind you,
but it a wee bit higher there. :)

When we are driving in Ireland and Northern Ireland,
we always make sure we buy petrol in Ireland, as it's
cheaper there than in Northern Ireland. Returning from
France, we always fill up there since it's a little
less expensive there also. 

But I've not driven in the Netherlands in a long time.

Ellen, whose most recent driving experience outside of
the UK and Ireland was November 2006 in Germany, and
it was a little cheaper than the UK. Prior to that it
was Finland in June 2006, and their prices were
getting uncomfortably close to those in the UK.
