Very funny >:(
It is really... ;D
Bye the bye, living in Yorkshire has taught me a thing or two. I must have a couple of hundred carrier bags stuffed in various places in the kitchen and in my car. 5p indeed! That's a shilling in my book.

2 tanners ? Unlike you Opti not to have mentioned 4 "Threepenny Bits" ;D ;D ;D

Or twelve penny coins :y

You`re all showing your age ha ha

Well...if we're going down to small coinage...it's 24 ha'pennies or 48 farthings.
I used to like farthings, with a little bird on them. My grandad had a whiskey jar full of them and was quite proud of the fact. Be worth the square root of fick all now.
-
9.6 farthings to one new penny, and grandad used to get a quarter pound of sweets for a farthing.
Yer don't know yer born, yer bastids. ;D

I know that I was born after that antiquated money system was abolished! :y
-
Think of all the kitchen wall, cupboard door etc used bag holders that will now be on sale at a car boot near you.

I can vividly remember taking my dinner money for the week to school.
It consisted of two half crowns making a total of five bob.
So a shilling a day. :y

Yes, exactly the same for me.
We used to get pink dinner tickets, whereas those who got free dinners got blue ones. Very un PC. ;D
Anyhow, I used to give a free dinner wallah half a dollar for his five dinner tickets, leaving me with lunch all week and two and six to spend. He, on the other hand, used to have a feast on Monday, and salivate over our scoff for the rest of the week. :)
I should be at the Tory conference really.
;D

Yep, and me ...dinner money was 5 bob a week. Never saw tickets down here. My bus fare home, 2 miles was a penny. We had a tiny little sweet shop on route if we walked and most of the stuff was priced at a farthing each. Penny for a packet of Smith's Crisps. And aniseed balls were 8 for a penny. I loved them. Sherbert Dabs were a penny. In fact, when I started work in J K Taylors sweet factory, Sherbert Lemons were only six pennies a quarter. :)
