99p ?
When I was a lad an ice cream was ten fucking pee ! Ten fucking pee !

Now it's £1.20. What else has gone up a thousand percent since the fucking seventies ? Nothing.

Petrol cigs and booze
have all gone up due to tax not inflation

I can remember paying 20p for a can of coke and that's 60p a can,
I considered buying a pot noodle the other day but when I saw that it was on special offer for 99p I thought a quid to make me ill was a bit too much.

Don't get me started!
The fist time I ever went to a petrol station when I was 16 (ish) it was 3s/4d a gallon, about 16p. Oh and beer was 1s/9d less than 10p.

Mine sells screwballs
