Glad you have been enjoying the blog.
...Hello Sue,<br /><br />Glad you have been enjoying the blog.<br /><br />One has to be British and of a certain age to understand the money. Sevenpence halfpenny is old money, about three and a half pence in new money.<br /><br />Bring your machine in as soon as possible. Damp is the greatest enemy of old machines, and Oregon sounds as bad as this country on that score. Just think, you could have a lovely old treadle up and running by Christmas.<br /><br />Love,<br />MuvMuvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00734374133479479218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1895516057450453227.post-21676697475538628242012-11-01T14:32:38.020+00:002012-11-01T14:32:38.020+00:00I was curious about the sevenpence half penny cost...I was curious about the sevenpence half penny cost of the pattern so I "googled" it. In 2007 the exchange rate was $1.60 US. I’m wondering what the rate is today, five years later. I am a new comer to your blog and in the process of working up the courage to bring in a treadle machine that I have had stored in my garage for over 20 years. The weather in Oregon is turning to dreary rain and cold and I figure this would be a good time to get started on the old lady. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of these vintage machines.Sue in Oregonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02943516029419494307noreply@blogger.com
