Aha! Does that mean a pint of water weighs 1lb? Interesting. I did not know. > I had already assumed that pub prices had inflated to higher than a pound. It was under £1 for ½litre of beer when I got here. In fact it was under US$1/ US 1pt. Now it's a bit more. Cheapest I had was CzK 17 for half a litre. At the time that was about 50¢. > Such worries call for having a few pints. It is one of the things I miss most in lockdown. And there's no electricity supply in my man-cave/basement so I can't even go down there and play with my old computers. :-( -- Liam Proven – Profile: https://about.me/liamproven Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk – gMail/gTalk/gHangouts: lpro...@gmail.com Twitter/Facebook/LinkedIn/Flickr: lproven – Skype: liamproven UK: +44 7939-087884 – ČR (+ WhatsApp/Telegram/Signal): +420 702 829 053
