I had always been told, "A pint is a pound, the world around."
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 ?litre 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. :-(
