Inherited wealth is an essential prerequisite

We were there over the weekend
That museum you suggested was amazing really needs a whole day to do it justice!
We managed to escape wine free though.

I'm glad you made the effort Mikey... I knew you'd be one of the guys to appreciated it...... Unlike the other philistines on here


Hey Gouldy..... Any decent chip shops in your neck of the woods..... I don't do arty farty grub like wot rich folk eat

The one in the village used to be great but it's changed hands and now not so good.......but ......the pub down the road Oxton Bar and Kitchen does a mean burger and hand cut chips for £10 .....I reason it's one of the best burgers I've ever tasted......for comfort food and for you southern folk, I still recon The Ivy does the best belly pork I have ever tasted....and good value at £18

£10 quid for a burger and chips Does it come on a diamond encrusted plate??

It's a step up from pub grub.

I recall paying that in hotel in Swindon about 7 years ago, I nearly fell of my pew. Then I remembered the client was paying, so what did it matter ?

You'd better stay away from the 9th Oct Dog and Duck meet then. No diamond encrusted burger plates there, but a £10 burger is a reality.

I paid £23 for burger and chips in a hotel recently, and it was bloody awful

I got charged about £30 quid in swizzerland for a coffee and an ice cream..... Didn't realise until later on when I did the old exchange thing between £ and Swizz francs on the calculator....

It was about 15 years ago, and I still have nightmares and break out in a cold sweat when I think about it

About £12 for a Guiness today in Kuala Lumpur! Was about a tenner for lager in Singapore

That's because everything in London is a rip off. Cost me £5.20 for a Magners once, and it came and was a plastic 330ml bottle instead of a pint...

I've spotted your problem here; you'r drinking two of the worse drinks known to man.

What's up with Guiness? A meal and a pint in one.

Cider is very refreshing too, although I prefer Kopparberg or Strongbow to Magners.

Ahh, good to see some of the pubs still have a different rate for Northern Monkeys! Its designed to keep you away from our fair City.
