I think you will find prices alot higher now than you've quoted.A large kingfisher is about a £1 now,food prices have gone up,and a taxi for a day will now cost you about £20,depending on where you go.

john have things gone up that much we will be out in a few weeks and im sure we will deffo see price changes we were just saying this year I think we will have to pay for sunbeds on the beach
You can still eat and drink cheaply enough away from the tourist belt.But as the rupee is going up against the pound (76 compared to 84 a few weeks ago) things will work out more expensive.

I agree with John, you can definetly eat cheaply away from the main tourist hotspots, ie restaurants which totally cater for tourists.
We met a nice lady a couple of years ago and she never goes to the main restaurants for a drink, she'd much rather go to a local bar and pay a third of the price. By no means is she 'tight', as she does visit tourist restaurants, but you find the atmosphere is a lot better in the local places.

Normaly pay about 55 rupees,saying that i know there is an increase due.I've been to a couple of shacks so far and the price for a large Kingfisher is still 70 rps.It's the food prices i've noticed have increased ,probably by around 15%.
