Pence.

No, it's not pounds, but rather "penny".

The "E" stands for 40 pence, I think.

I dare you to look up "Shillings" in relation to British currency.

Are Bunchies edible, though?

Jatsie · 08-01-2008, 07:03 AM

They're best when spit-roasted.

Yes, let's protect our foyers with dronts.

(Whenever I think of dronts I think of the movie Ice Age.)

Wishbone, wishbone,
Caught in my throat,
I can't use the phone,
It fell in the moat.
