Spending your money in a bar
Have you ever wondered where your money goes when you've had a
few too many.
This is not to say that silly spending doesn't occur when too much
alcohol is taken
The chart below shows that depending on where you sit with a group of people
[ in this case you plus 19 friends]
will have an effect on how much you consume and how much it costs.

- 10 people sit on the left hand side of the pub - They sit at 2 tables, 5 at one table and 5 at another.
- 10 people sit on the right side hand side - They also sit at 2 tables, 6 at one table and 4 at another.
- All drinks cost 1 euro each
- Each person buys one round of drinks
