00:00I love the pub, I go to the pub every single day and I'm from London, I'm from South London, it's ridiculous how expensive it is.
00:10Since the pandemic a lot of things for everyone have grown up into the air, things cost more, things are a bit more difficult.
00:17Like oh, young people don't go out anymore because they can't afford it. After my student loan I only have £16 left over.
00:25I always do a bit of value for money but I don't go out very much in the evening but I like to go out for lunch and I find there's some really good bargains for lunch, nice food, yeah, locally as well.
00:37I can barely afford to do it here, you know, like there are like balls at Durham, there are so many events that I can't go to because you just have to prioritise.
00:46I can't have a social life and also like do everything else that I want to do, you know, I think it's really awful that this kind of pressure is being put on young people which feels wrong because at the end of the day it's just going out, right?
