 ;D Can you remember what a pint cost in '85 to help put the price in perspective?
I was remembering just last night that in '75, a pint was 18p.  ::)

keith:
Google says about £1.20, can't remember myself and have no idea what one costs now  ??? ;D

Draught beer 77p in 1985

£7.60 odd was quite a lot of money for one piece then! equivalent to about £50 odd now.

keith:
That is a lot for a flower vase.
