I don't want my politicians concentrating on those things.
How about you get us out of the Middle East FIRST and then go shopping.

A least if they are concentrating on the shopping, they can't be messing-up real issues.

1. Who cares. But more importantly, can you even buy milk in pints any more?
2. Well it's a bit like the proverbial piece of string.
3. What type, new, old, Charloote, Jersey Royal, KE ... ?
4. Very much.

I buy all these things relatively often, although it depends where you buy them.
1. 4 pints or 2 litres for a quid is a common offer, which makes it 25p or thereabouts. If you buy in smaller amounts it's usually more like 50p though.
2. Nice bread is about £1.30 (that's a large brown from Waitrose). I don't buy sliced white processed stuff so I'm an out of touch elite on this one
3. Depends on the time of year, 3lb for £1 or 5lb for £1 are common market deals which makes it 45-65p a kilo.
4. About £1.30 I think (not something I buy often)

The Universe being stoned off it's gourd would certainly explain a few things...

And on the 7th day god got stoned and created man, just to prove he had a sense of humor. 
As I grow older I've found that pleasing everyone is impossible but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

In the mind of The Great Philosopher, one must understand that whatever the universe does or is is by its very definition, normal.
Thus, if the universe seems stoned off it's gourd, but, in fact, is the prime definition of normal, what does that say of the rest of us?*

The first eight are usually "Someone that thinks that they can sell ice to Eskimos"
And number nine is usually "poor sod who has to do all the actual work"
