Think he means that £1.40 is 40% greater than £1, i.e. 140% of £1 is £1.40

Thank you!!!

I didn't put a price of them though, did I? Meaning I wasn't talking about them, just the Tea itself. Plumchops.

YOU ARE THE PLUMB HERE BOY. DISCUSSING THE PRICING OF A CUPPA AND YOU LEAVE OUT SEVERAL MAJOR FACTORS............AS POINTED OUT BY SEVERAL OTHERS :glare:

No 'b'. I wish I was a Plumber. Not bad money, I hear? :dunce:

There is absolutely no excuse for a large cup of tea to be more than £1 - and very little excuse for it to be more than 60p. I would never buy tea at £1.40, on the basis that anyone wishing to insult me doesn't get my money.

At my favourite local cafe I get a pot (loose tea, not those shitty teabags) for 95p, from which I can get three cups. It's lovely, too.

You from Scotland?
In the Cafe in Cowdenbeath I get a Haggis Burger and a Irn-Bru for about £2.

Scottish Cafes.

but mug of coffee, real coffee, not instant is also £1.40 so that's a bargain surely!

NG NEWS.....BREAKING NEWS.....BREAKING NEWS.....BREAKING NEWS.....BREAKING N

I've just received a text from AEWParsons at the ground.

The sensational news is that from Friday the price of tea has been reduced to £1-00 in The Jim Parks Bar.

Well done, Brooksy, Jim and Kevin the Catering Manager. A great decision.

The price of tea in the Jim Parks Bar

Does anybody agree with me that at £1.40 the price of a cup of tea in the Jim Parks Bar is at least 40% too high? Yesterday I enjoyed a lovely cuppa in the Durham Pavilion for just a pound. Check out the number of people who bring flasks to the cricket at Hove - surely lots of them would be buying tea in the pavilion if it was a decent price.

I swear this was posted on the Sussex CC Message board?

Yes a pund should be the most

Chips were £2.50 for a tiny tray on Sunday. Makes Withdean prices seem like good value. Mind you, got in for nowt so shouldn't really grumble 'spose :blush:
