He's only used two and that's because he's in a hurry to get to the bar and get me that pint!

Don't slow him down.

Sorry, only had £20, and at £4 a pint, that only gets me... how many pints?

I really need to start going pub again, just to find out how much a pint costs.

Well, that's as good an excuse as any..."just slipping out, dear, I need to conduct an in-depth survey into the retail price of beer," ;)

I wish you would, it's costing me a fortune buying my own.
Don't worry about the penny, I'll show you where you can get me a pint of good real ale for £2.10. It may even be £2.09 after today!

I get it. I was confused-I thought algebra was an actual mathematical theory involving numbers and letters-which my brain didn't entertain the logic of!I used to sit there thinking 'Maths is numbers. English is letters-what's the deal with mixing the beggars up?!?' :)

In the above situation I could work that out-I'm not THAT bad :) but never thought of it as algebra.

Edited to add, in the time it has taken me to write that post and post it.. you've ended up having a good sup behind my back. Where's my invite?

No problem on the Maths lesson-I was genuinely intrigued!

The smilies rule-I thought that was just for over-use? Does it need to be re-written if it's not allowed at all?

At that price, it can only be the rocket fuel in the greyhound.

Is that the regular bitter in there? I regularly have a couple of prematch pints and I can't say I've noticed the effects. Maybe I'm not drinking enough of it?
