With all the hype about the VAT decrease - did anyone notice the alcohol duty increase, its gone up 8% on beer from last monday!! graftey b*ggers.
Due to the price of alcohol we rarely go out drinking now. Usually we have people round and drink in the house instead. Much cheaper. Why pay £2-3 per pint when I can get a pack of 12 cans for £10. If we drink in the house it costs around £15. For the same drinks when we go out it costs us £50-70. Excluding taxis and..... takeaways ;D ;D
I've never tried brewing but after seeing how easy it is to make wine,
maybe you'd enjoy brewing your own? Some folks make a party out of
the initial process which gives them a reason to celebrated together again
after the fermentation.
