Well there you go then, it’s not an exaggeration for the places I go to be 80p more. And I just remembered actually, the Neck Oil was nearer £6 cos I got 2 cans and it was just under £12. Not at all, I did specify Reebok.
I don't think everyone got the memo, I stayed in Hackney last week and the place was still swarming with beardy blokes in skinny jeans and lumberjack shirts.
Tourists or, like I said, proto hipsters. The actual trendsetters and cool cats have defo moved on and snarl at beardy types.
Still get a decent pint for less than £2 in my neck of the woods. Usually four guest ales on between £1.85 & £2.25 a pint. 8 other pubs nearby furthest being less than a 5 minute walk away. Turned one of them into a cocktail ****hole though, sacrilege. London is ****, I do like an occasional trip though.
Can I hijack this thread for a short while & ask for some good wholesome advice that can only be found on here? I’ve done two things today. Hinted to the other half before she went to work that we may go away for the weekend tomorrow. Sorted out a decent 2nd hand lens for my camera that I can pick up tomorrow or Sunday from Retford or for £20 he can post it to me. What’s Retford like for a weekend away? Is there much to do? What’s nearby? Will the joy of the lens outweigh the earache? Am I playing it right or should I take her elsewhere & cough up the £20 for delivery.
retford? blimey, if slough is the souths most depressing place then retford probably takes the crown for the north
