Beer Day in Iceland
When I think of Iceland, I think of volcanic activity, Björk and Damon Albarn. Who knew that until 1989, beer was banned on the island? Mental. March 1st, the day on which the 75-year-old ban was lifted, is marked each year in Reykjavik's bars and clubs. They call it Beer Day. What japes. A pint is so expensive (expect to pay about £5), I'd just save up my cash and emigrate.

Thye are not emigrating over here, where you'd be lucky to find a pint for £5!
A couple of friends included Iceland on a world trip, they said it was beautiful but that the beer was arse and the locals were...well icy.
I enjoyed my visit to Iceland, but yeah the beer was expensive. The brennevin was nasty and the people were so nice. But different strokes for different folks...
