Fiver a pint

[exiledclaseboy]

Well, I'm sitting in the Captain Kidd pub, owned by the Samuel Smiths chain, in central London where I've just been charged £8.20 for a pint. However, in mitigation Captain Kidd was a famous pirate, the word 'Organic' is in the beer's name, and it's a riverside pub with a great view of the river if it was light enough to see anything. So that's OK then.

I can top that. The Blue Boar, just round the corner from Westminster Abbey, stung me for £8.40 for a pint or some Japanese lager a few weeks ago. I nearly fainted. And only had the one.

Makes me feel a bit better about the £7.80 I paid for a Peroni in the Barrow Boy and Banker just off London Bridge. But not much

Nice one. I reckon I'm at least 350 notes month better off, problem is the missus is spending it all.

Our local is running a happy hours (plural) promo of Inch’s at £3 a pint. It’s been very popular over the last few weeks of beer garden weather.

Yup about £300 I reckon. Five packs a week, £15 a pack. Ridiculous.

Twenty quid for a pack of fags, my word!

That’s a long way from an 8p single on the way to school.

Nope, I'm guessing I haven't had a pint in what...25 years. The odd glass of wine with food very rarely, but that's it.
