Re: England too Expensive?
I think England is cheaper than it was last year - everyone is competing for your business.
While i was in Australia I thought it was much more expensive than England, and in some things it was (alcohol, junk food!), but the food portions in Australia are massive compared to what you get in the UK, so i guess it wasn't that expensive really.
The funny thing is, whenever i do my food shopping, i'm now converting everything into dollars

In fact i'd go as far as saying some house hold stuff is cheaper then it was 15 yrs ago 
Seriously.......

There`s also numerous nasty cheap Chinese restaurants here for that as well. They get the already sloshed clients even more sloshed with cheap wine and then serve em a nasty menu for like 5-6 euros a head. All good business I believe, given the amount of Mercedes and BMW the Chinese have here.

I have to confess to liking the "full English breakfast" once in a while, but it'll end up being my main meal of the day! And I like black pudding.
Thruppence ha'penny. Those were the days. Sums were fun. If you buy 1lb 5 oz of nuts at thruppence ha'penny an ounce, how much would you have left if you had two sixpences, a florin, and three half-crowns in your pocket?
