What would be the price of the occasional comma or full stop? I'm only thinking you might pass out from lack of oxygen kyle, bless you.

I.'d have given the cat one of my bendrofluazide tabs!! Seriously tho-the cost was probably for the diagnosis?! Hmmm

i reckon it could be anything between £150-£200 for operations and after care, depending on which vets you use too they don't all charge the same.

When barney had to have his ear sorted the rspca bloke quoted us £35. Got the mutt there [by which time id worked out that the op would be £25- wiv rspca discount.
Next thing, vet rings 'how much did i quote you?' i say £25-not takin the piss, just my 'bill' and he was 'oh! Ok'. Goes to show ya though...

And the rest!! Tarot was in overnight, had an IVI put in, 2 litres of fluid, some blood tests and 2 sets of tablets and it cost £255!!

I'd say it would be closer to £1000 if you add surgery onto it.

Don't forget that the price mentioned originally was in AUD, not GBP.

I don't like Aussie dollars, it reminds me of a big mistake I once made in my younger years... I quoted a client £5500 for a consultancy services amongst other things once, and they asked for the invoice to be provided in AUD so I did... but I forgot to do a conversion (no swanky client billing and support system that does all the conversions automatically back in them days lol).

Needless to say, the client signed the contract I had offered, and it wasnt till I only recieved £2800 via the electronic transfer I realised what a plonker I had been!! We live and learn!

I did one the other way round in Sydney, my hotel bill was quoted as dollars and paid in Singapore Dollars, told the bloke a dollar was dollar was a dollar. He must have been mentally challenged because he took it. Got out of there fast.
