Well, actually this doesn’t apply to me at all, the pub is within walking distance, and it’s overstating really because Petrol costs about £1.10 a litre, whereas a pint of the black stuff is around £3.05 . Anyway, I wouldn’t want to ruin the mood too much by being overly upbeat; the bank decided to [...]
