I think it fell out of use here because it was only found in Agatha Christie
novels, and nobody remembered the conversion tables.
If I remember my conversion tables correctly, 1 fortnight plus six farthings
divided by 2 Imperial pints equals 6 troy ounces. We'll just have to weight
for Andrew to get back to the list.
Sorry.
