£25 for the Friday banquet
£15 each for the other meals

Then chuck in the £60-£70 for travel and times it all by two...

It might well be in the 'Harry Potter' college but I'd have to raid Gringrott's to justify expense like that now.

Expense is a factor for me .especially factoring a day holiday - I shan't stay in college -or at least not that college. I can't justify three nights accommodation when I shan't go to the evening do on opening night and won't go to Enyalie. Either I shall day trip, stay one night maybe at Keble again - if the ents are going to be an improvement ... or check in at the travelodge. I thought the food prices were outrageous last year and made my own arrangements.

For £400 you could probably rent a flat for a week....
