I thought it was really expensive. A pint is about £7.50 and a packet of fags £13.
And as it had a limited number of supermarket chains I thought the fresh food was dear.

Great country though.

My brother who Mcbeef and Swipe totally fancy went there for a year
He says some booze is expensive and others cheep, for example a box of wine costs the same as a bottle. He says a lot of the natives carry a couple of boxes around in their cars just in case.

We were drinking the boxes on picnics and then blowing the skin up and using them as pillows

All my mates who've been out there reckon it's very expensive for eating/drinking out
