Your 35p ages me - in my youth I was paying 10p a pint in Hull Brewery houses; £1 would get me a gallon of ale and pattie and chips on the stagger home
We could buy a can of beer for around 12p from the off-licence when I was 15.My big mate got them cos he looked older and had big sideburns
That was bitter. A pint of mild was 10d and a pint of mixed 11d in Top House in 'Essle. The coppers who popped in at closing time never said out either !
Did exactly the same thing at a mates house party while his mum and dad were away. Think it was Tartan Bitter.
Thanks a bundle. Spent nearly half a century trying to erase that stuff from my memory along with other horrors of the time. And now you have reminded me again. For younger folk an illustration of how bad they were is that they made Carling seem good.
