I've lived opposite a pub for the past seven years and only ventured in for a meal on a couple of occasions.  I felt a mug, not smug when I went up to the bar to order a drink with my meal.  One Coke for my wife, and one pint of cider for myself, without any crisps or anything came to exactly £6.00.  Practising Christian or not I blasphemed!    No wonder there were so few people at the bar!  As far as I'm concerned, they can make everybody redundant, raze the building to the ground and put up a block of flats for all I care.  The food wasn't all that either.  I don't know how they can justify the prices.  Doh - never again!
