why the english visit Cambodia
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

Re: why the english visit Cambodia
It's not 500ml here nor there. 330ml here, 586ml there. Plus it's $3.75 a pint in Wetherspoon's, thanks to the plummeting pound. If you join CAMRA you can wear sandals and have 50p (35c) further off. What's not to like?

http://www.stokesentinel.co.uk/8203-goo ... story.htmlOn average, nationally, the cost of a pint has increased, rising from £3.46 to £4.70

Isn't 50p about 65cents? Anyways, a pint of top brew at my local English Pub at the furthest reaches of the Queens Territories (Victoria BC) goes for about 3.75$ (less than 3£), which is quite sensible given the quality. The 18% alcohol tax on top not so much! But 1$ for a 3cl local khmer draft is taking the piss, while drinking it. I'm all for 2$ pitchers and 6$ towers while slumming it but the quality is not comparable.
For decent beer here pints go for 3$ in SHV at Woody's and 4-7$ in PP. These price comparisons are always crap as they never compare apples to apples, which is why I never bother listening to people or reading blogs about how its so cheap out here as they usually represent the lower demographic. Even a decent 'middle class' lifestyle here is more expensive than weatern countries.

Why do the english visit Cambodia?
Well, it's not for the sausages. Then again, maybe it is.

No shit! Raybull is on something...or he lives in a very expensive part of Asia... like Tokyo or Singapore.
I'm also from Victoria and I can tell you it's a bloody expensive place to live. Rents are high, you're taxed to death and you can't smoke anywhere (if you can afford to smoke).
You could be next.
