Been told today that you can pay up to £8 for a pint, with the exchange rate, etc.

How true that is I don't know.

Some of the pubs get a bit more expensive towards the end of a night (usually the trendy/posh establishments) but the most I've ever paid (while already quite drunk) was about €6.

£8 sounds a bit too steep...can't see that happening.

Nice one. I shall go and tell said informant that he was talking bollocks. He's a Utd fan anyway. I should've known.

Unless he was talking about some sort of establishment where you get more than a drink for your 8 quid...but in the bars/clubs, nah, you'd never pay that!

Three of us have booked our flight. That Murray's bar sounds good. It would be nice to say hello to a few faces from here.
