lichtgilphead Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Why do some pubs sell spirits in 35ml measures and others 25ml? Who decides this and why is there a difference? It's up to the individual pub. Gin, rum, vodka & whisky have been "prescribed spirits" since 1963. At that time, pubs could choose to serve the prescribed spirits by 1/6 gills, 1/5 gills & 1/4 gills - but they had to use the same measure for all the prescribed spirits throughout the licensed premises. When spirit sizes were metricated (1996 from memory?), it was originally decided to standardise on 25ml (a bit larger than 1/6 gill and a bit smaller than 1/5 gill). The pubs that sold 1/4 gill were unhappy about this, so they successfully lobbied for 35ml to be added to the permitted sizes. As a matter of interest, brandy is likely to be added to the list of prescribed spirits in the near future. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Dufresne Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Anyone know how long it takest to renew a lost (and expired, if it matters) passport? It expired last summer but I still use it for I.D since I don't have a provisional and not many places accept anything other than a license or a passport. It takes about 2 weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theentomologist Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) Nephew has me puzzled he asked- "If lions have paws and giraffes have hoofs. What do elephants have?" feet. they're ungulates, antelope or deer or cattle, but not even toed or odd toed ungulates they're in a third special group for various skelatal reasons. but basically feet.

The elements are arranged to reflect chemical patterns, especially down the vertical columns. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
