Pubs opening

Sounds like the drunk tank at Wesley disco.

“Shots don’t carry” could be a nice tag line for the whole thing really

I was on a stag in Dingle one time and the bouncers in the hillgrove put a lad who was too drunk on a stool and told him he couldn’t leave for 20 mins. Like a bold corner

And this cute little cuddle bug here is pancreatic cancer.

Best pub in Ennis for food, bit of sport on TV and a good ventilation strategy lads?

Knox’s ticks all your boxes pal

I’ve not played pool in nearly two years

First proper drinking session since things opened up a bit.

Pulled into Ennis around 6pm after a day chasing cattle on the foothills of the Burren. TB tested passed so the form was good. The mother had a lovely bit of dinner for us at 1pm but that was well digested at this stage so landed into Knoxs and got a grand bit of pub grub and a pint. Certs and photo ID required. A grand experience.

Off to the Lucas bar then where we spent the vast majority of the evening swamping pints and catching up with fellas. Covid has had different impacts on fellas, some have lost weight got fit others have let themselves go to fuck. Table service is a great job… Mighty comfort in it.

Onto Cruises then for a bit of live music. Strict enough with covid checks on the door but managed to get all in. Once you got in it seemed more or less pre covid business as normal. More organised queues for the bar and a bit of token mast wearing on way to toilets… I’d say they were also controlling numbers as there was plenty room.

It was great to see people mingling and the return to the randomness of a night out.

Landed out onto the street at 1am and it was carnage. About 500 young folk swarming around, some incident with an ambulance and cops assisting, lads singing songs, a few minor scuffles. Great to see.

We’re nearly there lads.

Great to hear this, people out from under the bed, Holohan and those mask wearing lock down freaks can go fuck themselves, there is no going back

Went into the Poitin Still for the big roaster dinner yesterday.

Covid Cert taken but carvery served as normal. The Bar section for the locals was back with about 10 lads AT the bar.

What’s it like in there now? Haven’t been in years. Friend bought a house out that way and wants me to head out some Saturday.

Actually really enjoyed the dinner and had 3 pints there. You go out the back to drink pints, I ended up their accidently.

There were Dubs watching the soccer but they were up to date with Dublin club hurling then I was chatting to auld lads from Clare and KK who were on about club games there.
Rathcoole is actually a grand spot for Co.Dublin, I only drove through it yesterday on the way to getting the roaster dinner.

Sound.

Yeah you’d forget it’s actually Dublin. Still fairly country out there. Not far at all either if you mainly do your business on the southside of the county/city.

Do they still have lifetime bans too?

The old Thomas Reads on Parliament St is now a Galway Bay Brewery house - The Beer Temple

Went for €6m iirc. Larry Murphys only €1m in comparison. The latter might need a rebrand.

Full compliance to the guildlines in Dublin tonight. Certs and I’d checked into Ryan’s Flannerys and coppers

Lucas’s is a noble pub, a lovely place to spen an evening pinting
