I bought a pint of Stella in some place in Leicester Sq. and was charged £4.95. It was the same price for a bottle.

That was in 2003, so it'll be £6/£7 a pint now!

LOL.

I'm not reformed at all. Just moved away

I was just commenting on how cheap it was, which usually refelcts the prosperity of the place.

There are no decent fish and chip shops or chinese take aways down here - much better up north.

Thumbs up

Too be honest - I don't expect change from a Tenner for a Pint of beer and a glass of wine nowadays.

Which is why I LOVE going to visit Dad in Macclesfield. It kinda feels like you can buy the entire pub a round for the cost of one night out down here.

Not that I do

Well, not often
