Ningis are not negotiable currency, because the Galactibanks refuse to deal in fiddling small change.' - HGTTG

And the following may come in handy if you should ever find yourself in medieval Europe:

4 farthings = 1 penny

5 pennies = 1 groat

5 groats = 1 shilling

2 shillings = 1 florin

2 florins = 1 ducat

2 ducats = 1 silver mark

5 silver marks = 1 sovereign

And from 1970 onwards, my father did nothing but bitch about decimalization.

Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name. 

Maybe I should have titled the thread, "Ye old foggie thread"
Pay close attention to Cheryl Ladd's character in the opening of Charlie's Angles. Yep, that is how telephone switchboards used to work.
