The Dumb One
Now it really gets up my nose when people who should know a lot better say "one pence". The correct terminology is one penny as we all know as 'pence' is the plural of 'penny'.
However, what about fractions of a penny. Halfpenny is OK and used to be abbreviated to ha'pny. but what about decimal fractions. How should you terminate 0.01; pence? or penny?
0.01 pence sounds better to me, but surely must be wrong.
