1. There are people having virus parties in England this weekend.

2. There were flu virus parties in the ‘50’s where kids had ‘play dates’ (not known as that back then I’m sure), so they could get the virus and become immune to it.

3. There is a thing called bug chasing where people try catch STDs

The mind boggles…

[glenshane]

There’s no party like the last party

[Massey]

@artfoley

He also did an episode of colombo

Colombo was a class program

[Corksfinedtboy]

We had something similar in my childhood anyone with measles,mumps etc etc invite them in give it to all the kids, class etc, everyone sick at the same time , everyone cured at the same time, madness in the 60s

That C&C have the licence to brew Budweiser in Ireland now. Diageo brought in Rockshore and Hophouse and the Yanks got pissed off.

@Ashman

Johnny Cash appeared in Little House on the Prairie

Johnny Cash appeared in the Cloudland ballroom in Rooskey in 1968. He never mentioned the LHOP. The place was wedged. Rooskey was the mecca of socialising in that era.

[Ashman]

Was Albert a factor ??

C&C had their own lager a few years back. That Clonmel shite. Is it gone now?

[Locke]

Heard of it but never tried it. Rockshore is outselling Bud in Ireland. In fairness Bud is like piss

[Tank]

It was absolutely awful, the worst I’ve had in Ireland.

Albert and Jim owned a rake of dancehalls. 10 at least and were more than decent to the bands that played for them. Albert was a great guy to get the job done. I moved house in 1979 and had a phone within a week when the norm was 3 months.

Cue FF fucker comment… Correct and right.

C&C sell Tennant’s which they brew in Glasgow. It has two markets in Ireland… The rangers crew and the cheap day drinkers where it competes with tuborg for diageo. It competes with harp up north.

Diageo have been moving on bud for a few years now. Rockshore was developed to replace it.

You didn’t get many Yanks and Rooskeys mixing in dem days.

Is it Coors who sell Carling then into that segment? Burton Upon Tyne or somewhere I think it’s mate. Like C&C they bought an Irish craft brewery a good few years and all of a sudden there was kegs of ‘Irish Craft Beer’ arriving to Irish pubs with UK barcodes and stamps on them.

Yet a returning Yank, Patsy (Yankee) Conboy built a dancehall in our parish years before the Reynolds empire. About 1950/52 . Hugely successful in its day.

Fenaghville, it’s googelable possibly.

Like a Rhinestone Conboy.

[ciarancareyshurlingarmy]

Coors & Carling are in the same stable. The crowd in Ashbourne were distributing them the last time I looked

[balbec]

Economy brands they call them.

[ciarancareyshurlingarmy]

Yes. Daytime Sales was another term I heard
