Im a lot worse than you mate.

Im 26 and have never set foot in a club, dont drink either. I just cant see the appeal of a club at all, loud awful distorted music and packed mostly idiots.

Saying that i dont go in pubs either really, but i have been in one on the odd occasion, and its usually one in the middle of nowehere after a long walk/ride, but I'm happier at a petrol station lol.

I feel so sorry for you younguns, no wonder you don't like going clubbing they are all ****e these days.

Back in my day when there were proper clubs in every town playing decent trance/house/D&B. None of this so called R&B nonsence.

Aberdeen Average Club.

Pint - £3.00
vodka + Mixer - £2.50 (x2 = £5)
Some womanly blue thing - £3

= £11

And if it was a weekend, that would be a minimum!

Pint - £2.00

Sally your prices sound abut right. Either way you look at it, it's p*ssing good money up a wall. Be alright if the music was worth it.

Pretty standard for clubs to rip your *rse out with the prices.

What I don't understand is there are perfectly good pubs entitled to serve until 3AM or later, serving beer at normal prices. Hell sometimes you can even have a stoppy back, and lets face it anyone who needs more than 8 or 9 hours drinking time has probably had more than their fair share. So why do you need a club, not like the pubs stop at 11 o clock these days?
