    I was there a couple of weeks ago.

    Fantastic place that was surprisingly cultured and modern and reasonably free of stag parties.

    Beer prices are reasonable. £1.50 to £2 for a pint. Food is very very cheap and excellent quality.

    Absolutely stunning women. 7 out of every 10 were 6ft tall, size zero and looked like supermodels.

    The people are very quiet and almost appear rude and ignorant but that's just their way. They appear to be very reserved.

    Beautiful city with lots to see and do and a lot of very nice bars as well. Weather was also superb. Blue skies and 28 deg.

    Same price as in Carlisle then.

    In Prague we found a bar where it was still 28p a pint. And it was good Staropramen. Some tourist bars were £3 a pint. Had to search out the "local" ones in side streets and away from main square
