Mine too, and I agree :)

Thats bloody expensive indeed.

I paid 65 euro to get into Pacha in Ibiza the other week, then bought 2 x gin & tonics and it came to 34 euro... for 2 drinks.

And they wonder why Ibiza is awash with disco biscuits :D

Dunno about that mate - my whole family are Irish and going to visit them costs me a small fortune each time...

With the relative strength of the Euro vs Sterling £4-5 a pint even well away from Dublin is the norm, not the exception, it would seem to me.

Bird came back from there yesterday; 20 Euros for 2 double vodkas and coke.

Don't think I'll be going there soon.

Dublin is the second most expensive European capital after Copenhagen.

Unfair to blame the city of the Liffey and the Little Mermaid.

Buy a beer in Oslo, weep, and respond to the thread...
