Re: Sobriety

Re: A place to call home: where next?

Mate of mine retired, sold up and bought a house in Competa, in the hills outside of Malaga, 5 years ago. Weather and repairs (and health) have made him consider 'downsizing' to an apartment in Malaga. He's looked after himself pension-wise so he can do it. Very nice town but hills and winter are b...

Re: Most expensive pint in London?

Pubs should be displaying prices on the pumps nowdays (as spoons do), rather than an sheet of paper hidden away.

I paid £13.23 !! for 2 pints of Gunniess in Waxy O'Connors a couple of yrs ago, staff couldn't explain odd number !!
