Adeline Genee
15th Oct, 1907 I received your nice PC with thanks. Excuse me for being so long in answering but I did not think I was owing you one. I have not had a PC from Imlach yet. I think I will send him one and ask if the stamps are all sold out in Fraserburgh. Tell him you get a score of P.Cards here for a 1/2.
With love from Joy
I could make a stingy Scotsman joke about him waiting for a letter to steam the stamp off, but being of Scots ancestry myself I wont. Anyway, 20 cards for a half what? half a crown, half a sixpence, half a pound of sprouts, what?

1/2 surely means 1s. 2d. (i.e. one shilling and "tuppence", or two pence if you prefer)
