You make this statement as if you're surprised fireman. When I first started underage drinking back in the seventies a pint of bitter in the AEU club was 10p, a pint in the pubs was 11 or 12p. When I started driving a few years later a gallon of 4star was 37.5-40p. We can't even blame this one on good old grinning Tony Bliar.
