Here in Shaky Isles (NZ) there were 2 sizes of the 20 oz contaoner; the
handle and the schooner, the next size down we knew as the "middy"
Then there was the 12, the 8 the 7 and the 5 ("ladies glass") Of course
the standard fare was the jug whu\ch gave about 4 or 5 7's ( I thiink,
it's been a while since I did thise, besides, when they went dismal, the
litre jugs didn't seem to hold as much... but they cost more due to the
tax takes in it's (ne)various guises...
