Well... a bird never flew on one wing

Wouldn't it just around in circles??

You never had a bad day at work, no?

All days at work are bad days! Do your fucking job!

Although I will say people should be allowed a pint or two at lunch time after grafting all morning. There's zero alcohol beer now so I see no reason why not. Certainly not if you've put the effort in. Nothing like a few scoops after work.

I was designated driver during a night out over the Jazz weekend and was surprised that I couldn't get Guinness Zero in a couple of official Guinness Jazz outlets. Some change from back in the day when you could only get Guinness products in such venues. They had Heineken Zero or Moretti/Peroni Zero but no Guinness Zero

Probably a shit pour on the Smithwicks, too. The bastards.

Was chatting to the barman in a local pub there, he's only 22 and from up the country, but an absolutely lovely fella and he's down here in college.

He was kicked out of his apartment as the landlord wanted to sell up. He's just after finding a new place, but in the meantime he was sleeping in his car.

22 like. And through all that he could have just gone back up home, but kept working through it all. Bar staff are made of hard stuff

I'm Cali sober a year end of the month. Might celebrate in pubs having zeros

I'm sorry to report that another legend of the Cork pub and music scene is in a bad way.

Mick "The Butch" Murphy is just out of hospital and things aren't great.

I'd say he's familiar to a fair few in this thread. One of the biggest legends I've ever met. I hope he'll be OK, but as things stand it isn't good.

The name rings a bell but I can't quite place him. Get well man.

It's owned by the guy who has the Liberty, as well as Soul Restaurant around the corner.

A very good operator and a nice fella, I'd say he'll make a good job of the new Preachers.

Not sure if he's managed to do anything with the jacks, which was always the biggest drawback of the place. They're absurdly small. My mate big massive Dave used have to go into the kebab place next door to use the jacks because he couldn't fit into the one in Preachers.

My only complaint is the name. I'll have to keep calling it Preachers as I couldn't be arsed typing out the new name, with all its fadas
