No my first pint was 13p. And it was Club Breweries in Pontyclun or Ansell's, it was awful.

Scrumpy at 9d a pint in The Mitre, Llandaff was great value when I started drinking 'properly'. Ratted for about 3 bob.

I remember paying 39p for a pint of John Smith's. That was in a social club. I think a pint in the pub was 48p. A fiver was more than enough for a decent night down the pub.

Re: Anyone Else Remember Pt 2

i can remember being able to buy 10 fags for 1/11d. I would buy 10 Cadets on the way down to the City at a shop on Ninian Park Road. We used to call them the One Drag Fag. They were all gone by half-time.
