Your last post was about a nice price for a pint at £6.
Holy crap! that's CAD$10.20.
I can get a pint of Stella Artois for CAD$4.50 at my local boozers. (Heineken, even cheaper during "happy hour.")
That's about £3.15.
If the nice price of £6 is the new price, what was the old?

BTW- makes me #10.

Sarcasm mate!!! Referring to the 1940's decor but the bang up to date extortionate London pricing for a pint

Same here - youtube did 'something' and the MV links no longer work (on Chrome at least). No doubt one day Jess will get around to fixing it.

Went out for a ride on my triumph a couple of days ago.
Cut a long story short i managed to instigate a military coup against Robert Mugabe.
Had to get the fuck out quick.
Hope it went well.

I dropped into my local friendly dealer today and there was the scooter I'm selling and the scooter I'm going to buy.

I'm pretty determined to replace the Kymco with another one but mid week the thoughts of owning a Royal Enfield did come me.

Strokes chin.
