Anyone up for a London Poly meet, somewhere between the 3rd and the 9th of August?

So, for a night out, I'd have to bring around 25-30 quid?

I could live like a king here on that.

Well I quite often spend 30 quid on a night out in Cambridge (which is expensive as well, though club entry won't cost more than £6 usually). Now i have to admit to drinking a fair amount, which possibly attributes to this, but I'd be surprised if, not counting transport costs, I'd spend any less than 40 quid on a night out in London.

Food: £7 (Chinatown - best place for cheap food in the West End)
Drinks in Pub: £2 per pint * 5
Club Entrance: £10
Drinks in Club: £3 per bottle (beer) * 4
Food after Club: £3 or so

Actually, go on then... the Astoria is on my "places that get me down" list for the time being, so feel free to suggest alternatives.

In London? That would barely get you into a club, let alone buy drinks...ie, we aren't going clubbing

Please tell me you're kidding. I am about to pawn my house, and sell one of my kidneys.

Drinks in Pub: £2 per pint * 5

That's a cheap pint! Even a pint in Chandos off Trafalgar Square (Sam Smiths pub) costs more than that!

Hmm, the Wetherspoons in Cambridge is £1.80 for a pint of Bodd's or carling, I assumed it'd be similar for Wetherspoons in London. If it's £2.60 or so I suppose, take my expected to total to £45

Actually, that's a point. How about Chandos?

Erm, what's a pint? If it's 330-500ml, that I am not drinking so much.

568ml

1 pint= 568 ml

In the theoretical event of me saying that I wanted to come on the 8th would anyone be able to offer me somewhere to crash for the night?

More than that

Anyone who can't handle five pints is officially a lightweight, I can drink that over a curry before going out Then as i said, I probably drink too much

[Ecthy]

you guys sure are being quick now

or I'm just being terribly slow

I can drink more than that, but I don't think I would do that on a night out. On a night out, I usually drink little beer. Vodka, OTOH....

[Ecthy]

5 pints is almost 3 litres, way too much to be a lightweight for not handling...

Az and me will be labelled the official lightweights of Apolyton after that night
