Hmmm...During the last two weeks perhaps?! I couldve "helped" out by getting your "petrol" up here, (about 1 1/2/ hours North of London town)...I pay $2.47 on Uncles Sam's pumps..

Unfortunately,(tentatively speaking) Ill be in Deutschland at Oktoberfest during that time.....

You should try to make it...You can fly pretty much anywhere in Europe for less than 20 bucks...INCLUDING airport tax..
