    I don't complain, I just refuse to pay outrageous prices.
    I wouldn't give them 85p for a pint of pseudo Spanish Madri anyway.

    More shocking is your willingness to pay to watch Greg Davies. Awful 'comedian' based entirely on shouting and laughing at his own material.

    • Well thanks Rich for your educational advice on the merits of comedians. I’m sure it’s amazing in ‘my opinion is the only one that matters’ land. Have a really nice day

    Absolutely, each to their own. Was just giving my opinion on him.

    The price of alcoholic drinks these days is an interesting issue. We were in the Outpost before the match on Monday, and I paid £11.20 for two pints of Madri, a pint of Carling, a pint of Tetley and a can of coke. On the other hand, I’ll pay more than that for two pints of Madri in one of my local ‘Taps’ tonight. Someone taking the proverbial?

    So if Madri was 85p a pint you wouldn't drink it?

    I'd just like to know why on earth you're buying pints of a totally made up "Spanish" beer. Even real Spanish beer is better than that and real Spanish beer is mostly awful.

    Love it how a thread about the cost of something turns into others telling others they can’t enjoy it and are drinking crap.

    Exactly, I drink mostly lager, but do partake occasionally in a real/craft ale, IPA etc. I enjoy them, but that doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy anything else.

    It wasn’t for me so you would have to ask the people I bought it for. OK?
