A Pint, the Pub, and a Penny saved

03/06/2009

Pint

‘What do the English do after a long day at work?’, you ask

‘They go to the pub’, I reply.

‘What do they do after a long day of not-working?’

‘They go to the pub’. (this time with a shrug)

Do we see a pattern developing?

This was me yesterday. Long day. No work.  Need to get out.  Pub?  Pub. Problem. If we haven’t worked that means we haven’t any money. Fortunately for me I have long been in the habit of taking my favourite pint glasses home from the pub. By now I have emassed such a collection I could probably open my own pub right in my livingroom. I also happen to have some good ol Badger ale already in the house.  A and I decide we should pour our own pints and then walk to the pub (let’s not forget, drinking outside is legal in England). Nobody will notice once we’re there. It’s a nice day. The pub will be packed.

Success!! We arrive at the pub, pint in hand. Not a penny spent. One more outing for the unemployed.
