Something I have been wondering about for ages, but

[classic33]

I also have a class design dimpled glass I had forgotten about from Ravenshead. It doesn't have a date, just the crown, with 'Pint' above and 478 below.

I'll need to get some dark stuff to pour into the glasses I have..... Purely for illustrative and photographic purposes, of course!!

Surprised you don't yet have a 545, 974 or a 1022 though.
1002 Aaberdeen City Must be a special!

Right, well, according to the link below, to be fully local, I need to find a 202, 227, 1346, 1734, 1954 or a 1955.

A 1212 (Clydebank) would also be nice.... :

478 St Helens

I know, just sayin'

It seems to me that you could try and collect them all, but..... Where to put them all?

Interesting reading, I had no idea of all this, so thanks!!

me neither - I only know the things in life that nobody is interested in, like the name of the hotel that fell of Scarborough cliff....

The link didn't seem to work when I tried it before for some strange reason.

A 1212, yes it is cancelled, and, a bit like Brandane's comment about the Inverclyde ones, it'll be a rarity!!

Enjoying your new hobby. Field trip required yet?

You'll end up with some odd looks when you start looking at the numbers and then writing them down.

The M12 box at the side states the year in which the CE mark was applied to the glass, in this case 2012.
The 0126 number is the registration number for National Measurements Office – the official government body who verify the CE marking.

gotta ask - how do you know all this stuff? seriously impressed

Holbeck Hall
When it happened, I thought it would be useful to remember in case it ever came up in a pub quiz.....but a bit like the horse that ran the Grand National, that never was (Esheness) - none of the things I purposely remembered ever came up!

Oh ok - I thought that either a. you worked for customs/ was glass blower/ rep for encyclopedia Britannica (does that still exist?) or was Steve Wrights very own "Ask Elvis"
or b. You might be making random things up, but saying them so confidently that we were all hood winked.

I was thinking more the places where you could get them filled with a suitably dark liquid, thus enabling you to see the number easier.
