crikey, i nearly choked on my toast. i assume this is an all expenses paid visit?

i can't believe the prices - 15 quid for a fried brekky and then they add 12.5%

30 quid for a bottle of rueda i can buy here for €5 and polish off in about 15 minutes.

no wonder people can't afford to come to ibiza

From a review:

Everything was spot on but the sausages were truly amazing. The waiter told me they were from Cumberland. I think Cumberland must be heaven

:lol:

LoL - you can tell when its a "works" dinner out - the most expensive restaurants are chosen - booked anyway so thanks for the responses....

Stephen - you sound like my Dad (in a funny way - not an "old" way) last 2 weeks everytime he went to a bar - he came back looking shell shocked at how much a round of 3 pints and a large white wine came to..... they are soooo gonna suffer when the come back to blightly to live....:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

he'll just have to cut down on his ale. ditch the white wine would be my advice as it's a bit of a girlie drink anyway

You have been drinking in the wrong pubs Sir! Try any of the fine Fullers pubs in London for some excellent ales.

No problem mate, it doesnt look much from the outside but the food is fantastic. If you come out of northfields station, turn left its on the other side of the road.
