Arsenic

Just called to get a couple - unfortunately �5 is only off top price seats making them �27.50 each. Prices start at �12 + �3.25 per ticket. Looking forward to it though. Thanks for the info.

Went throught Ticketmaster in the end. 2 seats on front row of Upper Circle for �29 including booking fee of �4 on Valentine's Day. Pretty nice.

Have the British not yet embraced the Euro? Still counting in Pounds?

Just wondering...

Yup, 'tis so. I for one am happier with pounds sterling/pounds weight/miles. Long may it continue, although, sadly, I don't think it'll be long before we're bundled up into Europe Inc.

Just to maintain the political balance of the newsgroup, I'd really like to see us in the Euro and at the forefront of Europe. The more I study it (I'm a Politics student) the more enthusiastic I get.

The Euro is a very good thing, the only disadvantage is that life in The Netherlands has gotten much more expensive. A beer is now 1,60 Euro here!

When I left The Netherlands for Canada in 1995, beer used to cost fl 1.75 - fl 2.50. With inflation, 1.60 Euro doesn't seem to be much of a jump....

here!

1.75 -

In 1998 a beer was fl 2,00. 1,60 Euro is fl 3,75! That difference can't all be inflation.

Are you talking about buying a beer from a store or in a restaurant? And what size beer are we talking about?

"Noone" schreef

I'm talking about buying a beer in a bar. The size is a standard beer glass, which contains 0,2 liter.

Standard beer glass, 2dl? No way, for milk maybe. I think in a world of beer there's one standard: pint, which is 4,73dl. Is this off topic?

"Noone" schreef

glass,

There are standard glasses for every drink that contains alcohol. This is done so that every glass of booze has the same percentage pure alcohol in it. The standard glass for beer contains 2dl.

That's the world of American and English beer. The world of horsepiss, as we like to call it in Holland.

Who cares?

So you believe in the centralisation of power, unelected european leaders ruling us and a common economic policy ocross differeing economies. The only good thing I can see that comes out of it is that you don't need to change money when you go on holiday! And of course that's how they are selling it to us. Business likes it too as they don't have to factor in fluctuating exchange rates. So basically it favours business and politicians. Great! Anyway enough politics - never Jerry's strong point.
