Pubs reopening June 29th

[Crisp Sandwich]

I remember the first time I ever met him.

Myself and herself were sitting at a table in the Gables and she suddenly goes "jesus Christ, don't look now... but Ian Bailey is sitting at the bar"

I told Val after and he said it to Mick, and he loved it

He was droll out.

I was having a pint in his company a good few years back when a man in his 50s broke into our conversation and said to Mick;

"Pat, isn't it? You're a butcher, aren't you?"

"I am."

"Do you bone and roll turkeys? If I bought a turkey from a farmer would you do it for me?"

"Ah sure we would of course. I'm gone from the old place though. My new shop is inside the Dosco - drop it in and, if I'm not there, say that you were talking to Pat."

"Thanks, Pat"

"Bye now"

"Are you involved in the butchers in the Dosco now?" asked one of the lads at the bar.

Mick took a thoughtful sup of his pint and merely replied;

"No".

He didn't drink in Ziggy's did he?

Don't remember him from Ziggy's tbh, but I knew him to nod to from the Welcome Inn

He also really liked The Poor Relation in more recent years. I think it was Ray Barron he used go in there to see.

He would have gone to Charlie's every Monday night for the music, and the Gables on a Sunday and Wednesday for Johnny Neville.

Well I finally got around to a pint of Clockwork stout.. it’s been a while in the making. Looked great in the tankard to be fair. It has some of those lovely chocolate/coffee notes and super smooth, but possibly too smooth. It is a lovely pint that feels like the dial is at 7

Congrats Benny, it’s a fine alternative

I thought I'd heard it all.

In one of my locals for the usual Friday pints, and this annoying but grand regular at the end of the bar orders a pint from the pretty young blonde barmaid.

She hands him the pint and he goes "can I ask you a question?"

"Of course"

"Do you like it up the arse?"



She said no btw. Yer man is still getting served somehow.

Called in to O'Suilleabhains this week.

Impressed by it except for the prices.

Paid a euro more for a pint than I was paying earlier in the Abbey

Shocking, nobody should have to put up with shit like when doing a days work.

Joking and slagging is one thing in a bar but that’s absolutely shocking
