Prague observations

Girls are cute
McChicken is on point
Liking my new job
Hotel makes a solid Old Fashioned

That’s all

Seriously...not kidding...Prague McChicken destroys ours

They got some black pepper seasoning on that chicken...and the lettuce is greener

Highlight of my trip #priorities

How much does a pint cost now?

When I went to the first festy there in '95, a little village called Hostomice, we got steak, egg, mushrooms and chips with a pint of lager for about a pound.

That CzechTek was tiny but next year was massive. Every café had literally scores of crusties sitting on the pavement outside eating steak and chips, all day for the whole week.

Bet it costs more, now. Be a tourist and go and have dumplings in Wenceslas Square.

I was there last year. Or was it the year before?

A pint (well 50cl) was around 35CZK and I was getting 29CZK to a GBP. On the other hand, a 330ml bottle of water was 50CZK.

Lovely city is Praha.

Well done the Czechers imo.

I also (just about) managed to eat a fúcking massive fillet steak. Which was around the equivalent of £10. :eat:

I do remember water being more expensive than beer. Wasn't sure it was still the case. I once went there as the guest of the Czech Tourist Board. I don't remember a lot about that but the article I wrote was very flattering :)

I had quite the adventure in Prague on a stag do. lost the stag party, met a lass, ended up at random house party, getting stopped by the Police as about 8 of us in a car but she knew the coppers and managed to talk me out of getting arrested, then took me to see the proper Prague and then got me back to the hotel just as everyone was leaving for the airport. There was some other stuff as well.

I'm remembering a night in a tittybar when the girls were selling some high grade Bolivian marching powder as well as saucy dances... that was a late one.

The Insider

I was there in whatever year it was that we played Sparta and TH14 broke WWW's record. Spent the afternoon in an underground bar with MRs I and a chum. Just under £5 for four hours worth of Star and Absinthe. Got attacked by eight racist Arsenal fans who didn't like my chums jewish origins. I was headbutted out of the blue whilst talking to them and got a broken nose, but they all ****ed off when Mrs I decked one of them and then attacked another. A memorable day indeed...
