Inflation

Yesterday I wanted to try out a pen that had been given to me, and discovered the only ink I had was green, so I bought some black ink.

57 ml of ink cost me £7-49. As I paid, I remembered that many years ago I bought a pint bottle for about 10 shillings. A pint was about 570 ml. At the current price, a pint would cost 74-90, so the price now is almost 150 times what it used to be !!!
