on one over here would know what a "squiddly" was.. but a quid is the almost universal UK slang for a british pound.. bit like a "buck" and there would be about 1.8 bucks to a quid.. he he..<br /><br />never heard of the term "squiddly".. who uses that one..??<br /><br />trog

It's the same here in the USA. We have bronze wool pads that sell at the local HomeDepot store at $4 for a pack of 8. Just one pad is $4 at the local marina.

Hey Trog, kudos to you Limeys for not signing on to the Euro. Don't ever allow them to swallow you up.
