    Aye aye - leave my cod piece and tights out of this - that's where I was keeping my change after they weren't allowed on the seats.

    Genuinely not trying to sound patronising, but why don't you just get the issue resolved?

    If I could do it, I would. Unfortunately I don't have the necessary permissions to make changes like this... maybe just as well !

    It has been brought to the attention of the powers that be many times. If I see a thread with the offending characters in the title, I edit the title and remove them.

    Same here: 'four and six!'

    Could convert back to it tomorrow without a second thought, whilst enjoying with delight the total confusion that would cause to those born after decimalisation......

    Maybe the U.K. could go back to £sd after Brexit, lol.

    What else do you remember from that era. 50/60s

    Shampoo in small sachets. Soap only in tablet form ?

    Terry toweling nappies/ protected by plastic knickers.

    Huge silver cross prams.
    Coach built Silver Cross prams still very much available, don't look at the price too much, saw one advertised that looks exactly like the one we had at the time a mere £2750, reputedly at a discount

    You could have paid with a 10 shilling note, 2 half crowns, and 6 pennies

    A pound note. You would get 4s 6d change.
