Forgive my ignorance but such things are interesting to me. What are the realtive values of each? What could you buy with one ____ for example? How do these relate to pounds?

Post Tue Nov 11, 2003 4:31 pm

its pretty impossible to say what they are worth nowadays....we moved to decimilisation (think thats how you spell it), eg.pounds and pence, in 1971 (think thats right...taw?). Now we do the whole 100 pence in a pound thing like normal people.

Thing is, the generations before us found the whole 10s and 100s thing confusing, bless em they find it easier to work in 12s, 14s and 16s, so you will often hear people referring to "old money", but its usually in jest (like this thread).

....and then of course, there's the euro....but we're not gonna get onto that because it'll get political.

as for how much things cost...err...look at amazon.co.uk!

i think the current exchange rate is $1 = 60p.
i prefer metric over imperial any day of the week and every day of the week try and have a go at my dad for defending such a stupid wights and measures idea. although we still seem to be unable to get rid of miles in favor of kilometers...a shame really.
