It would be way down the list when going on holidays ffs. Activities, relaxation, a few books, a few sights, food… Shur you can buy beers and wine in the bottle shop and drink yourself silly if you want.

Young fella with no kids, I’d say the pub is a big part of any holiday, the Irish and drink, you know how it is
I’m sure you were that soldier, it won’t bother me either.
Not really on holidays — being honest, pubs always bored me -even as a chap. I dont mind a few beers in a proper boozer but it was always way down the list when away on hols., I never really bothered with those two week type holidays in the sun tho.
I always found that when you’re away without kids you can either stay in your room and watch TV in the evening or go out for a few drinks, sometimes go bananas, more often than not have 4 or 5 pints in a few different pubs so you can still enjoy the next day,
Pubs are interesting, Irish pubs especially (in Ireland)
I’d miss that if I was away without the kids, but at my stage any holiday is just abou their enjoyment, I’d try to get out for a run early in the morning but the rest of he day is for them.
116 people in hospital as of Thursday. 8 in ICU.

Decent article here by Fergal Bowers.
Mrs O’Sullivan was around there for coffee … she has to go for a small procedure in private hospital soon…
After getting millions from the state recently - and being front line medics with the green jersey on … they told her that she’ll have to have a covid test done before they can perform the procedure – and she’ll also need PPE gear — so the cost of the covid test is 280euro and the PPE is 70euro …
350 quid for a test a GP and get ordered for you for free - and a few bits of garb the Chinese make up for a fiver.
What a laugh.
You have to laugh, news reporters shitting themselves

Trying to drum up a bit of hysteria and FF bashing hoping for a political crisis on top of everything else so she can write a few articles…
We’ve the same leadership now as we did throughout the opening few months
He’ll never recover
He’s building a bunker underneath the underneath of the bed
Saw that myself earlier “People don’t seem frightened anymore”

They love being relevant for a few months.
Kids played a GAA match this morning. And now I am out for a few drinks. Get out from under the bed and start living. Nothing is guaranteed.
