Some prices for you (approx and rounded down, 100INR is as near to £1 for me not to bother calculating exactly.. OK its £1.18 (27/03/07) if you want to be exact))
Bottle of water 15p
1st Class ticket for 1 and half hour journey £2.60
2nd Class ticket for same trip 18p
Yes you read that correctly, a train ticket can cost the same as a bottle of water. Train journeys deserve their own chapter, truly incredible, so I’ll leave that little chestnut for later.
1L Kingfisher beer in market 80p, in bar £1.70
1L imported single malt Whisky £5
Petrol 60p litre
Fresh coconut as a snack, (top chopped off and straw stuck in, then later chopped open so you can eat the flesh 15p)
Bananas couple of pence each, grapes 25p half kilo
Soap 20p, talc 35p etc.
Trousers or shirt you can get for £2
Sandals £4
