Hi Bob

We digress, but I wonder whether you all like beer over there?

Cans here are mainly 500ml, but some are a sneaky 440ml.  Most bottles are
now 500ml, but we do see some 330ml.

The regs for honey have changed dramatically.  Not long ago we had to sell
in specified Imperial quantities - 2oz, 4oz, 8oz, 1lb and then multiples of
1lb.  Next we had to show Imperial followed by metric; then metric followed
by Imperial; then no need to show Imperial.  Now, do what you like - any
quantity - as long as the metric weight is shown (in specified heights of
course and with no space between the numbers and the 'g'!).

Isn't the EU a wonderful thing?  Huge numbers of bureaucrats trying to find
ways to waste our time and money whilst keeping themselves in luxury.

Best wishes
