Just thought I'de air my views on a subject I can whine for hours about,
hiking the prices for the arrival of the tourists,and in particular the price of drinks.I know the majority of the Brits come over here for the culture,weather etc
,but they have been known to pop in a bar to quench their thirst.
First of all I'de like to state that I do'nt mind paying the extra price on a bottle of beer if the increase is government or brewery policy,but what gets me going is when I go into a bar that I and lot of residents keep alive during the winter,to be informed that the price has increased overnight,just because you bloody lot have arrived.
.
I bet you're thinking what an awful man,what a selfish attitude,to a point true,however when I see kids drinking coke at 3 tl plus a shot when you can buy it by the gallon in the local markets my blood boils.
It seems that up here in hillbilly country that bars are not allowed to display drink prices on the board outside,so if you go into a bar ask the prices before you quench your thirst,otherwise you may need a drink when the bill arrives.
Anyway when you depart back to blighty spare a thought for us poor buggers who live here and have to pay the inflated prices you've inflicted upon us.
While you're here have a nice time,spend all your hard earned brass,but please,next year go somewhere else,I hear Outer Mongolia is quite pleasant.[ only joking].:
