Damn Scots with their money that everyone looks funny at.

How much is a quid. This is a fact that has eluded me for too long.
Alternately, a quid is regional American slang for a portion of saliva and/or chewing tobacco ejected from the mouth. Which makes pricing anything in quid much more amusing.

Signed a lease for a new apartment in El Cerrito!

Its close enough that I can cycle to the office, and still cut my commute way down. And it's pretty awesome.

Squid is commonly used in place of quid. As is Bob.

Although a bob used to be a shilling, which used to be twelve pence but would now be five.
