Is it just me or is that place just a little on teh expensive side? I mean £6.5 a bit much for a bottle of water. I'd pay at most £1.5 equivalent for a bottle, but maybe thats just one of those exchange rate things?
That's just a seriously expensive place they were at. Most places in London don't even stock Cristal let alone methuselahs of it, so we can assume the club was at the expensive end of the scale.

Looking at the receipt on the This Is London page, it looks like he only paid £94,000 anyway. I can't figure out the maths on that one; even if he refused to pay the service charge, the drinks plus tax still comes to £95,000.

Tight b'stard. :rolleyes:

Maybe some of the party was still at school and got an EDU discount. Otherwise someone is a mediocre businessman with rubbish haggling skills.

£4.50 a can for red bull? ouch. someone really did see that lot coming. I mean london's expensive, but that's just crazy.

Even if I had that kind of money, I'd not be able to waste it like that. I'd just spend £100,000 in Asda instead. Get 4x as wasted for the same price :D

I do want to give u my advice that's all :)
If you'd like to discuss the down sides of drinking, ok, perhaps start a new thread on it and hope it doesn't get out of hand. However, if you want to discuss it from a religious point of view I can assure you it won't go down quite as easily. Those threads are taken to the Politics, Religion and Social Issues forum, which you must have 100 posts to post in.

Yep, work hard, earn his money spend it how he wants. Wants to spend it on 'Killer Drinks' then who are you (Or I, for that matter) to say other wise.

Yep, I will 'loose all my health' one day, be it 2mora or 70 years from now. That is a fact of life, if your number is up, your number is up. Just hope your not on the plane when the pilots number is up. ;)

We don't know whether he does actually work for his money though. He could be second or third generation rich for all we know. In which case he doesn't even need his brain cells. He can pay people to think for him :)

How about a Bentley, some nice acreage somewhere, start an orphanage, give to the red cross. If rich people haven't anything better to spend they'er money on, damn give me some! Takes me years to earn that kind of money, what a waste. Well, I certainly hope they had a smashing time. I could have done that for about $2000 and still have been kicking myself in the morning. Oh, them silly oil people anyway, money to burn and wipe with.:eek:

This doesn't make sense. 40 bottles of Cristal champagne cost £15,360. This means that a bottle would cost £384. Then why did they waste £30,000 on a Methuselah when they could have got the same quantity of champagne in normal bottles for £3072? And again why £9600 for two Jeroboams when they could have bought eight normal bottles for £3072?

Different vintages..... this can drastically change the price.

Is not the price but can some one devide the total amount of liters and divide it into the number of people?

Too much alchohol for a human been.
