On the radio they were discussing the cost of living and how it had risen..
The conversation got around to the cost of alcohol..
 It can be OVER 11 pounds for a Gin and Tonic in the London area..

How can anyone afford to be an alcoholic.. ?

I doubt if G & T costs that much in a typical pub. Maybe in an exclusive club or top hotel. Mind you last time I bought beer it was 1/3d a pint.

I reckon the real alcoholics buy it in bottles in the shop. Pubs are for social drinkers.
