The Brown and Sarkozy show

What about the ransom paid for King Richard...65000 pounds of silver.

It was only about 3 tons, not 30 tons. Now about £1.8m

Edit: You were referring to £s, not lbs, weren't you!

65 k pounds. wow. It was worth it, Richard came back. With Knud, so did the tide. With Brown, so will the ice age.

65k of silver back then, is worth what now? It was used to build the city of New Vienna, and a good few interesting people such as Porsche hailed from there, they built the first V2 rockets, and nearly all of Austrias special forces are based there, so it must be worth a good few billion now.
