Just got back, it's 5 euros a pint, 18 euros for 2grams of decent green and you can get a minging prossie for 30 euros... I spent 100 euros a day and could have easily spent more...

Went a few months ago, I'd suggest taking booze with you for a hotel pre piss up.

You talking €5 a pint in the centre.
On the outskirts you can get buy one get one free on cocktails and spirits sometimes.

Cardiff with KLM will be around £100 return.

Try easyjet from Bristol, we paid £50 return, can then get a train which uncludes a transfer to airport on bus if u ask at the time of buying.

No liquids over 100mls through security.
Can buy booze in duty free to take tho but they wont let you on board drunk be warned.
As your flying klm you can a free snack and one drink on board, they offer tea coffee or juice but they do lagar and wine free as well. Get there early and you can get the extra leg seats free if u ask.

buy booze from the off license pre night out, while getting ready would save you 100 quid over the 4 days,
if your gonna buy mushrooms, i'd reccomend buying weed as well to help you chill out and to sleep :lol:
dont buy any illegal substances off dodgy rasta's down suburbs unless they speak english and agree to go to a cafe,
