Frank, you are so right that the whole weights and measures malarkey is a farce, esp that related to alcohol. Thanks for the info, Jim, that was very useful. I think most people probably regard a pub measure i.e. one pint of beer, one measure of spirits, one glass of wine as a unit, but this is far from being the case, as Jim's post shows. It doesn't help when a glass of wine can vary between 125ml - 250ml, depending which bar/pub you chose!
