A good session myself and a few others(normally around 7 or 8 of us) do is book a hackney cab for the day and just go on a tour of either North Tipp or East Clare

Ballina
Portrua
Garrykennedy
Newtown
Silvermines
Newport
Killoscully
Birdhill
East Clare:
Clonlara
O Briens Bridge
Kilbane
Broadford
Kilkishen
Tulla
Sixmilebridge
Cratloe
Normally done on a sunday from about middayâŚEverbody kicks in 25 euro for the cab and about an hour to an hour and a half is spent in each villageâŚgood auld craic and under no real pressure as the cab driver normally comes around with us drinking tea and having the banterâŚ

It actually is bandageâŚA great day hadâŚthe beauty of it is that each village is only about 10-15 minutes away from each other so you arenât half the day driving around busrsting for a piss in the back of the cab;)

Certainly sounds like it to me. It actually looks like a day that would be good craic in fairness but I canât imagine youâve done it as often as you seem to be suggesting puke. Iâd wager once, maybe twice tops. Or possibly its just a drunken idea that never got off the ground.
A big problem for me would be the taxi driver coming round with ya. I hate having a sober fella you donât know on a session Iâd be far too self conscious of him and would be half-cut and trying to include him in conversation/be sound to him.
Far too much like hard work.

too many holes in his story
why not get a cab at each location rather than having some stranger watch you get drunk

A little bit of metropolitan naivety there.
Queues at the taxi ranks in OâBrienâs Bridge and Garrykennedy can be quite long. Better to have the hackney for the day.
[quote=ânorth county corncrakeâ]can you not order cabs to pick you up at a certain time?
especially if its a sunday afternoon - cant be too busy[/quote]
To come out from the nearest big town (which could be 20-30 miles away) every time?
I wouldnât persist with this line of questioning counsel. Focus on another element of the defence case.
