Old Skoda's that were being used as tourist rides...
Money, money, money!

Sooooooo much history. Going to Prague was like going to a weekend-long history lesson for me. Was really interesting as well as beautiful. My favourite part was all of the wooden toys. There is no plastic anywhere! When you buy a drink, it comes in a glass bottle, all the toys are made from wood and it's very very cheap!

40 CZK (Czech Koruna) is one pound. Was a bit hard getting use to the 1000 CZK notes... but we soon came very use to it :)

We went out for sat in a Czech restaurant for hours drinking cocktails, eating food and it came to 700 CZK! You couldn't get that in London for the equivalent of 18 pounds.

p.s Sorry for all the photos of me and not of Simon - he was taking all the photos this weekend!

It was communist in '79 so our trip didn't take in Prague but it has got a good name. What things did you do apart from eat and drink?

Simon you may want to check out CLUB ARIADNE. Enjoy a reserved,private cellar restaurant with a three course evening meal including several beers and champagne. Dinner will be served on your arrival with beers flowing. After dessert the entertainment begins with individual striptease shows by two beautiful girls. The girls work there way around the table teasing various guys but mainly targeting the groom for attention. After a short pause for champagne, for the finale the girls join ranks, culminating in a lesbian show and stripping the groom on stage to be used as the "meat" in the, always popular, Lesbo"Groom" Sandwich. Extra props such as masks, whips and chains can be introduced into the act on request and acts can be tailored and toned down to individual preferences.
Price=£ 46.00 per person
