Subject: Price of Guinness at Sunbury

I was in shock Monday night; having to part with an extra 10 new pence for a pint of Guinness at the Four Seasons Bar.

£2.60p a pint. What a rip-off.

Why wasn't I kept informed of the price rise?
Is it linked to the price of Brent crude?

Didn't realise you were a traditionalist, Mr.C

Ten NEW pence, eh? That's about 2 bob if my memory hasn't finally evaporated and drifted in a tired-looking cloud from my ears and nostrils.

Trouble is, I was caught in the middle of decimalisation.
Don't remember guineas and bobs.
Thatcher stole the school milk.
Get mixed up with kilos and ounces, that's the trouble with "dealers" these days.
