What's your biggest bar bill :)
« on: July 24, 2014, 23:58:14 PM »
Ok. following on from my review of a week in Fethiye (which I haven't actually posted yet), here is a completely meaningless topic.

We've all had nights out when at god knows what time of the morning the alcohol just keeps flowing.  The reality hits when you get the wee box with the bill - you open it and go "holy phuck!".

Over the years we've had some horrendous bills in Istanbul, and I do mean horrendous - fortunately on most of those occasions someone else has been paying (work related).  However a few weeks ago in Fethiye I was presented with a bill that would have brought tears to the eye of any Scotsman.  Take three (of age) teenage girls, mix in their Scottish parents, add the atmosphere of their last night in Fethiye and what do you get in the box? 

Not going to reveal all right now but curious to know what your largest bar bill has been...

Am I getting this wrong or was the question "what was your largest bar bill" and not what was your dearest drinks   ;)  ;)

On a significant birthday for my beloved a few years ago I arranged a surprise meal for the family at the Fifth Floor restaurant at Harvey Nichols the drinks bill from the bar only before we had the meal, more drinks, wine etc was from memory over £1100  :o there were about 14 of us.

Whole evening did cost a small fortune but as it was a total surprise for her to see all the family at ours before we went and a truly great evening it was worth every penny.   :)  :)
