I'm on your friends' list?

They are dwarves. I don't call dogs doges just because I like it better.

He's using Dwarfs for Tolkein's Dwarves! He says that we're wrong!

We do not have pence over here. Only pennies/cents. Sort of hard to put your tuppence in, when you do not have any... ;)

Yes you are on THE LIST. And I have achieved my task of annoying you.

Actually, we do have something but I forget what the heck it is called... You know, how gas prices are, say, $4.25 and 4/100? There is a term for that...I just forget what it is.

We don't use tuppences over here either. Not since the 70s.

Avron please saves us from anymore language discussions, or POMC start a thread for it.

POMC, no pre-decimilisation, just don't go I get that at work and at home its not a fit topic for UESP.

Actually, pennies/pence are basically the same. The 2p coin is tuppence and two 1p coins are two pennies.

I am not! I have also held a shilling and an old pound coin! I also know that a penny back then is 2.4 pence now. A shilling is the equivalent of a 5p.

I also hate metric measurements for height. Foot and inches all the way!
