"The Great Britain-wide average was £2.80, a 4% rise on 2009. But this covers broad regional disparities, with the cheapest part of the country, the West Midlands, falling well short at £2.45 below the most expensive, Surrey, at £3.08."

Obviously no Sam Smith's pubs in Surrey or there are and they've brought the average down to only £3.08?


"To those of us who can recall - just - the days of the sub-£1 pint, shelling out three times that amount for a single beverage will always cause a small part of ourselves to die a little inside."

15p when I were a lad, Running Dog and Arky probably remember it under 2 bob a pint.
