Before decimalization, the UK money was Pounds, Shillings and Pence (D). There were 20 Shillings to one Pound: 12 pennies to one shilling: 240 pennnies (D) to the Pound. The coins then were made up of farthings, halfpennies, pennies, thrupenny bits, sixpences, shillings, half crowns.
You missed Pontypool Park - an absolutely beautiful huge area with ponds, woods, Museum, St Albans school (Hanbury Family home), Leisure Centre, American and Italian Gardens, ski slope, The Folly and Grotto.
I think you’d be surprised just how lovely the park is! I forgot to mention the famous Pontypool Rugby pitch! Probably one of the most picturesque in Wales!
Really enjoyable vlog. I'm a big music fan so was excited to see the art work of David Bowie on the wall. Couldn't quite see if it was for sale or a part of their room design. But yeah cool. nice to see Ben again. Another quality vlog mate. 👍
@@Spudboys There was a big canvas art of David Bowie as you left the room Where those war uniforms were? I've never been to Pontypool tho. But looks a nice enough little town.
Sorry Mike, I laugh the same time as Ben, 1:25 You guys need to sing the Thunder Buddies Song (Ted) Vlog it. No Smell test? 5:00, Can not believe you missed the art of the eyes and nose. lol, ben pulling hot food face, 9:25. More Pooly cottage gang art, 26:00. Mike Come closer, Mike Go Back, 26:25, Van Goch Year 1888, Over The Rhone 32:25 and Year 1889, Hill side village, 33:50. The real starry night painting is worth $100 million plus and in New York. Time Travellers Clothes. 43:00. Did you go into the light? 28:35. Great day out, Thank you Mike and Ben.
