Cork city has gone to the dogs.

[Lee Bushwacker]

Went in there last week. Slightly better quality than Deals but they have it laid out in such a way that once you go in you have to walk up and down every aisle to get back out.

Like IKEA then!

Like IKEA then!

In terms of the aisles kinda - though it’s more of a maze than a single circuit.

The stock is similar to but slightly better quality than deals. Everything from sweets and biscuits to shampoo and glasses.

Fights in the Roundy House during the early 80s

Thought it was a bit of a poseur-palace back then

No, the posers would have been later.

At the start of the 80's it was like a wild west saloon. Great craic, but edgy at the best of times.

Sounds a bit like The Gilt Edge back then

There was this one dodgy young fella I saw yesterday evening on Oliver Plunkett Street, he was pissed and had a pint bottle of cider in his hand, he was holding it by the neck as if it was a weapon, I dread to think what would happen if anyone looked at him the wrong way.

 

[Yermon]

Ahh, the good old days.

When flagons had a ring at the top to hold with yer finger and balance the bottle on your arm??

I was in the city centre Saturday night and yesterday evening and there were plenty of them around. I suppose they can't be everywhere and it is a deterrent for some but not for others!
