Very strange. but it seems to work.
1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to have a pint. (try for more than once)
2. Multiply this number by 2 (Just to be honest)
3. Add 5. (for Sunday)
4. Multiply it by 50 I'll wait while you get the calculator................
5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1755.... If you haven't, add 1754 ...
6. Now subtract the four-digit year that you were born.
You should have a three-digit number
The first digit of this was your original number
(i.e., how many times you want to have a pint week).
The next two numbers are .......
YOUR AGE!
