Have a guess

Just been reading on another website about the Butlers Arms in Pleasington, which has just been renovated, would anybody like to have a guess at what they are charging for a large glass of red wine and a pint of beer:rolleyes:
 
A few weeks ago I went to the Crofters at Garstang to a haulage meeting.
I ordered two pints of lager for me and a friend and was charged £7.80.
£3.80 a pint is a bit much that's why I only had three.
It's £2.50 a pint in Read Con.
 
Well I reckon you'd be charged about the same as two good nights out on the lash used to cost in the 60's, (including bus fare home and a chip shop supper)!
 
Well the cost of a pint of, I think it was called Duechers, was £3-50p and a glass of red wine £7-50p that's £11 for the two, I think if I'd have ordered the drinks and asked for £11 I'd have walked out and left them on the bar, that daylight robbery, well the wine is:mad:

Ya Eric that little window at the front filled with tanners and the crash when three "7" appeared on the middle line, and a pint was 9d, I can remember going into my local and the landlord saying the ale had gone up 1d, and I said we're soon not going to be able to get 10 pints to the pound:eek:

Never believed in lucking out, The Bandit up the Elite (3x 9s) was jackpot, could be got by jiggling the bandit arm around, I seemed to win it once a week at least.:D;)
