I think this a phoney war that Bandage is staging with the 51, just to hide the fact that heās no longer capable of the all day sessions he used to conduct there.

came in very handy for the free pint[/quote]
Gibneys is a good spot, we took it over after the cup game earlier this year
Are you off work this week Sledge?
Phony war eh, Heās going to have an impromptu football game with the barmen on Baggot St bridge on Christmas day
its good when your pissed & its good in the summer if its sunny
the bar is ok for matches at times
prefer smyths for a more relaxed pint
wrights have opened a bar beside gibneys now
Will they be exchanging chocolate and cigarettes, sledge?
I posted the video of that song the other day. Christmas 1915. Great stuff.
Ha!
No movement in the dispute lately SS**. Iām due to respond to their last letter but I havenāt got around to it yet.
Peigs was a legend of a place. 1 a drink but youād spent 7 or 8 at the bar cos youād have to queue for an hour to get served. The palace on Camden street when I was in second year went 1.50 a drink on all drinks apart from alcopops. I never remember leaving that place in any other state other than rotten drunk. 25 would get you mouldy drunk, a bag of chips for bugermax and a taxi home after a short stroll down Georges street to try sober up.
Do you think youāll stick with bilateral engagement for the moment Bandage or will you push for a different strategy. Would shuttle diplomacy involving an honest broker like say Charlie Chawke or Ronan Collins not be a way to break the deadlock? Failing that what about straight forward round table talks with solicitors present?
Was stupid drunk by that stage and probably wouldnāt have found the place. Didnāt want to embarrass myself in front of Flano 
Embarrassment while on the piss is null and void in my book. Probably because of some of the shit Iāve pulled in the past.
go away flanoā¦you would pull fuck allā¦
Was pissed last night alright. Havenāt read the rest of this thread yet but presume one of ye feckers was in Coppers tooā¦ Iāll find out now
I couldnāt find a wing man and ended up staying in 
Ah Sledge a few of the boyos were out last night as far as I know. Not sure if you would have wanted to go out with them though.
Who? To be honest, the weather put be off, and then Sanfo sandbagged me so I wasnāt really in the humour. I suppose I could have tried harder to find accomplices.
Young Ivo et al. Heās pretty much a certainty for a night on the town on Wednesdays.
I might tap him up tonight, although heāll probably hassle me into going the gig at the weekend if I do.
Where did you hear about the gig? He hasnāt said a word to me about it.
