Cost of a Pint??
 
Can anyone help settle a bickering session going on here at work?

What was the cost of a pint in 1980 (pre budget if possible) - and also the price of a spirit measure (vodka) too?

Thanks in advance

You can probably find the average price for any year from the government - www.statistics.gov.uk
