Over £8 a pint in Oslo airport on our mates stag do a couple of years ago. Heroin is cheaper than beer in the Norwegian capital (according to reports).

I like Newport....its supposed to be the most violent town in Britain, but I like working class places....what I can't stand is places full of jumped up bourgeois toss pots like O*frod. Where I was is a vast council estate between Newport and Cwmbran, like Parks and Penhill combined in the middle of nowhere...it has a police station, the like of which I've only ever seen in belfast in the UK. |

Yeah Oxfrod, in Henley, is full of posh tossers! Here Here! Oxford is distinctly working class aside from the University-related stuff though, tipified by every area other than the city centre. |

When I went to Ibiz in 1998 it was £16 for 2 vodka red bulls in Amnesia :shock:
In our local it is £3.45 for a pint of Becks Vier. Shit like Magners or Organic Cider in a bottle is nearer to £4 a pop

How many CIU affiliated clubs are there in O*frod....I've been to teh Headington Labour club, and the Cowley social club which could be affiliates, but I can't think of too many more. |

€30 for two drinks for the little lady and I in St Mark's Square, Venice. I'm not sure how much that is though, £20?
Anyway, it was incredibly hot, and the drink was well and truly slotted.

Harry's Bar just round the corner was quite expensive as well. But that's enough of that.
