Mea culpa (or my bad as we are US). 2 bits is indeed an old colloquial expression for a quarter. I'll get my coat.... An infrequent visitor to the USA is often initially confused by the fact that the 5c coin is LARGER than the 10c. For me, the problem was solved by a hotel receptionist, while checking in. She said "Remember that it takes two big ones to make a little one." This piece of excellent advice has stood me in good stead on many occasions since. -- Ian |
