Re: Tuppence
in reply to a message by LMS
I know it means "two pence", but I also think of the fact that tupp is the Swedish word for rooster. Isn't there a song from Mary Poppins called "Tuppence a bag"?
I also remember a book called Tuppenny (I don't know the original English title, but it was at least called Tuppenny in Swedish) which was about a girl who became a victim of the unfamous Hellfire Club, I think. Does anyone know what book I'm talking about? I can't seem to find it online.
