Is this percentage correct..?

Expiry, if you're in Dunbar as you claim, you don't actually need to drive 50 miles to the seaside, I think it's a little closer than that.
Wouldn't that depend entirely on the route taken?

Add a few miles everytime the kids ask how long it is. That'll teach them quick.

Well, knowing Expiry as well as I do, that's exactly the kind of thing he might do.
For those who don't know, Dunbar, Scotland, is VERY close to the sea. So close that even getting INTO the car, to get to the sea, would be silly for most people who live there.

Dunbar! Now it clicks. "Cromwell's most famous victory" or something like that is the title of an Osprey campaign book.

Of course as a part time islander I know that even though you can chuck a rock into the sea from your own property it doesn't *technically* mean you're "seaside".

When I was young we would drive for 5-6 km to "get to the sea" even though we were literally right at it when starting out. Maybe 500m to the nearest body of seawater. Not that we'd have been crazy enough to swim there...
 
Ethics aside.
The bigger question is why would you argue with that. Sun Tsu said "never inturupt your enemy when they are making a mistake".
Never inturupt your sister when she says you are entitled to more.
Just get her emptically agee to and write down the percentage. Then reverse the math and now you get 26 of the sweets. :biggrin:

I love your ethics!!!!
