          Divide size of block by the size of a wrap to get number of wraps. Multiply number of wraps by price of wraps.

          The BBC appears to think a wrap is about .4 of a gram and costs £50.

              They should hang (common practice I understand in that part of the world).

                Is the £50 figure approved by the police? If they know someone is selling at £50 then why not arrest them?

                Just seems to me to be based on a limited sample size...

                  BBC assumes, rightly, that the street dealers will add all sorts of rubbish to it, to double the weight.

                    It could be what the beebs own media luvvies pay for their wraps.
                    Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

                    I preferred version 1!
