Cheap Nights Out
How's this for a bargain. Devon Sproule (fresh from Later with Jools Holland) at Thyme Square Restaurant in Dromore ( a small town in County Down, Northern Ireland)5th June 2008 for £5 plus some supper. Too good to be true. Can anyone beat that in such credit crunching times ??

Strange entrance fee
...so to get in, you had to pay a fiver and "some supper"? Or have I misunderstood?
Haven't been yet it's on 5th
Haven't been yet it's on 5th June. Since it is on in a Restaurant I am assuming I don't take my own supper.
However I may consider carrying a chicken pie in case of an emergency !!
"Devon Sproule"...
...sounds like something off Rick Stein's menu. Chicken pie might not be the thing.
Might be a licensing thing
I seem to remember frequenting certain establishments where the provision of 'food' (often in the loosest possible sense) was a precondition of a drinks/entertainment license?
In the last cash-strapped times
Circa 1991 I was working in Hull. Cue some friends up from London for the weekend: fish and chip supper, entry to see a not bad at all band at The Adelphi, and a pint...for less than a fiver. Probably about £4.89, but has gone down in folklore at wright towers. I seem to recall that Spiders the appalling/legendary goth club in the middle of some industrial estate in Hull also enabled entry plus enough bizzarre milk-based cocktails to sort the evening for less than a fiver too.
