Just a couple of drinks with the lads
Quote:
A businessman blew £125,000 on a single bottle of the world’s most expensive champagne while buying a round of drinks for more than £200,000 in a night club.
The financier ordered a 30-litre double Nebuchadnezzar-size bottle of Armand de Brignac Midas bubbly along with £60,408 on other beverages for his 10-man entourage.
Two waiters at the PlayGround nightclub at Liverpool's Hilton - which is on a huge publicity drive promising to bring 'six star Vegas luxury to Merseyside' - were needed to carry in the bulky 99lb bottle of champagne, which is the equivalent of 40 standard ones.

We did once, but decided that the Melchizedek sized bottles of vintage Bollinger was a better choice..

Re: Just a couple of drinks with the lads
You don't think it's coming out of his pocket do you?
It will be on expenses and all tax deductible
so the tax payer will be paying for it

Good thing they didn't go on a Tuesday. Check out the bill: VAT free Tuesdays. He could have shaved 40 Grand off the bill.

Surely that would have been 'tax avoidance' though and he'd have been slammed for that wouldn't he.....
