It would need to be at least 18 carat gold to be of any desire to me.

Jim seems to have a la-dee-da fancy-pants taste. Personally I'm a bit more down to earth. It'd only have to be 9ct gold for me...

That's the tradition from my understanding.

Oh you meant the ring. That was on one of his digits. I don't look at other blokes winkies, unless paid very well to do so.

Actually, when living in Holland I soon discovered 14 carat was the lowest quality gold you could usually purchase....the Dutch call 9 carat gold 'brass'.
