How long is a piece of string? We don't know what you eat or how much so can't tell you. This has been asked before and there are a variety of answers if you use the search facility at the top of the page

Hi Mazian, tricky one this one suppose it all depends on how much you eat and drink. We do like quite a few glasses of wine so maybe that would make our bill more, plus we entertain a bit but on average for us 2 people, 1 hungry labrador and a little cockatiel we are looking at about 100 euros. Be interested to hear other people comments, as if we didn't drink am sure it would be a hell of a lot cheaper. But then I suppose it is cheaper than going out to bars every night.  |

Would have been easier if I had given your answer Rob, but was trying to be polite and helpful. Now everyone knows our food and drink bill  |

Hi Mazian, and welcome to the forum.
For 2 people, and I am presuming you are not vegetarian, I would say you good eat very well for 100-120 euros per week. And thats including a few bottles of 1 euro wine.

| Angimac is a cheeky young pup don't you think sunny. He is funny though. I dread to think what our food/ alcohol bill will come to each week. |

Yes Salmac Angimac is a cheeky little thing, but to be honest he got it about right. Just think at least you won't need so many "oats" in the morning out here or any extra heating, wonder what young Angimac will think of that, and ciggies are cheap. Think Angimac is still in birthday mood ahhh bless  |

Hey strips don't worry about it, bankie is having problems with his brain hand co-ordination on one of the other posts.
We all do it from time to time although some are better than others eh Rob? |
