    £1.90 for a pint at my local

    Just saw this advertised on a banner outside the pub. Offer lasts from Monday to Friday every week and to think another pub along the road charges nearly £4 for a pint.

    After 5 weeks here, the amount I save on beer pays for the flight

    That's a point. I must save quite a bit on cigarettes. £7.14 for a packet over here, 90p over there.

    That tends to happen to me too plus I get more generous at handing them out unlike back in the UK.

    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    At the prices here, it'd be rude not to

    1ltr of gin 255php, or £3.50 for what would be over £20 back home.
