I understand for the price of a couple of pence (old money) a fresh egg could be obtained. A local farmer over there owned and supplied the eggs.Over to you folks, couldn't be anything stranger. A couple of pence?? thats a lot to shell out...
there are 10 types of people in the world. Those that understand ternary, those that don't and those that think this a joke about the binary system.

You do know that the Secret Leeds Team has the power to ban users for 'Gross Misuse' on this web-site, don't you? Haha.
