A man is chatting over the garden fence with his neighbour and asks him about his recent holiday.

"It was fantastic. Really good hotel, right on the beach; sangria; sunshine; what more could you want? And it wasn't too expensive".

"That sounds good", replies the man, "how much was it?"

The neighbour, who's getting on in years, puts his hand to his forhead and says "It was .... erm .... what's that coin?"

"A Euro?"

"No, English".

"A Pound?"

"No, less than that".

"A penny?"

"Yeah, that's it". He opens the back door of his house and shouts inside, "Here, Penny, how much did we pay for that hotel?"
