*yeeouch*
A litre of Irish beer or Cider is also around $9 here, including a
good tip for the nice lady serving it ;)
What a relief that I do not have to travel 500 miles for it, just
walk for 30 mins... Newton sais 664,87 miles to Dublin...

It has become very hard to come by good or even decent food here, at
least for my taste, and I am talking about *basic* stuff here, bread,
ham, cheese... thought about making ham myself, but a hog in the
backyard would not stand a chance against the cats...

At least you have some choice over there. Here it's all Mc D's and
Burger King, Subway just started to invade town, and I know for sure
about *one* KFC in the area.
