agreeing with your flat mate here
it seems the only reason to drink a drink at that price is to brag about it, and really, are you going to feel anything other than regret after 3 of those cocktails?
you could probably buy the ingrediants for the price of three and be able to make twenty of them.

it's not for everyone and it's not for everyday
we went as a group of girls for a treat, and it was lovely.

i wouldn't do it every night though!

That's not the point though, is it K?
It's the place, the music, the atmosphere and everything else that goes with it.

To be fair, I don't think twenty-quid sounds excessive for drinks at the Savoy.

If I had that kind of brass
I'd happily do it. Sounds like fun.

I wouldn't know, would I?
I'm a country girl, the fanciest thing in my town is Houlihans.
Just because a place has fancy music and smug twats floating around, means the girl should be judged because she didn't know the price of a drink?

I don't think anybody's judging anybody else for it, Kristine =/

Well I can easily spent £150 on a night out on the turps.
Granted, that'll include a couple of cab fares, but it'll mostly go on drink, yes, you get a lot more drink for your money elsewhere, but if you're having fantastic drinks made, using the best spirits then the chances are you aren't out to get spannered, instead you'll enjoy the evening and actually remember it.

I could spend a fair bit on a night out as well, I'm just saying that her post reads as "she didn't realise how much it was"
then "you shouldn't go if you don't want to pay the price!"

it seems a bit twattish to me

I don't think anyone would be in any doubt that the Savoy is going to be expensive.
They've recently spent £220-million refurbishing the place, and they won't recoup that out-lay with 'happy hour'.

as I said, "I wouldn't know, would I?"
I don't know what the fuck the Savoy is. Pardon me for not coming equipt with that knowledge, perhaps her flatmate is just as stupid as I am, considering we're both American.

the savoy is a type of cabbage
I don't quite understand how they could have spent millions refurbishing a type of cabbage, but then I'm not an agronomist.

You seem to be getting wound up on the internet, here.

I could say that I'm not and try to explain further, but what's the point

( Lisette von Falcon, Mon 14 Mar 2011, 13:36, Reply)

the sad thing is that I'd be considered as the one with wrong priorities
for thinking that spunking £150 on a night on the sauce is a complete waste. Fine if you are having a particularly great meal as well, but otherwise...
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Mon 14 Mar 2011, 13:12, Reply)

You're right though. It is a complete waste.
£150.00 could be spent on so many other things more worthwhile than a hangover, but occasionally, it happens. A night in the local costs nothing like that.
