We eat beef. We kept off it for months in the early days. A nice big lump of rib of beef would cost me about £8, which would be about $20 (I think - if Don were up, I would ask him and he would argue with me about the exchange rate). That's US$ . Canadian dollars would be $16 for the beef. Marged Always looking for: INGHAM, FISCHER, BENTLEY, HUGHES, PEACOCK, MOUNIER, LATINIER --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

I'll probably get mangled for this but I always thought that the Canadian dollar was worth less than the US Dollar' therefore £8 = $US 11 approx. and $Can 17 approx.
