If you really want a good one, they cost. I have a Weller TCP

student!).
No, but beer was nothing like £2 a pint when you or I were students
either ;-)


It was 49p a pint. Actually, I've never liked beer, but I did
occasionally serve it in a student bar.

Youngster. 12p a pint for Fed keg.


Ah - you did say beer... :-)


I'm feeling old. First pint I bought cost 1s 11d. That's just under 10p.
