I wish that petrol was still 37.3 or 39.5p a litre!

I can't understand what's being said. =( I have to consciously resound the words in my mind in order to understand the accent. Can't say I'm familiar with it.

Mazda 323 was known as Familia in Japan, but it was replaced in late 2003 or early 2004 with the current model, the Mazda3 (Axela), where it has been on sale since then.

I never knew Basingstoke was in the Thames region (mentioned in news bulletin)!!! I lived there for 20 odd years and we had TVS and Meridian......could watch ITV London with the aid of a signal booster
