I think everywhere in Euroland is expensive. Not just because the pound has fallen, but because it's expensive!

I have seen a Paris café where a drink had 4 different prices, depending on whether you consumed it:
1. standing at the bar
2. sitting inside the café
3. sitting outside
4. sitting outside in the front row of seats, with the best view.
Vive le marché libre!
I remember one Saturday morning in Paris. A couple of large café crèmes and a piece of buttered toast. Five quid before 9 am, and this was in the eighties

Has anybody here worked in London lived in Paris? We're considering it... I'm thinking commuting via the tunnel.
