Duty Free Shops, and their infringement on our freedoms. TONS of discussion about Ireland: Dan's recent trip there, and his thoughts on prices. More thoughts on prices. Museums. Prices. Amphibious boats. Tipping in Dublin. Or lack thereof. Prices. Why everyone in the UK dips their chips in Guinness beer. Some game talk! A Few Acres of Rubbish.
