Can you brits still drink pints???I resemble that remark! Of course we can. Trouble is our overstretched police would rather arrest someone for selling bananananananananas (Ok - I never know when to finish) in pounds than find a mugger who has just beat up an 80 year old lady...
Oh, stop it. This ain't serious (is it?)
Alex - just try thieving cheese by the ounce and see what happens;-)
