Nah, let’s not.
It’s a big ask…
would you settle for replacing the top hat with a syringe?
Attended protest. Go to jail.
You have landed on Irish Water, pay a fee of €260 or skip ago and pay €160!
Water Works? Not for sale (for now)
Free Parking? Yeah, right.
And, shame on you for placing Guinness in the same sequence as #Monopoly. Diageo is not a monopoly and it’s complete coincidence that Irish pubs pay 20% more for beer than English counterparts (even when the beer is produced in Dublin).
Is that not the government’s taxes on alcohol ?
“informed industry sources have said the price of beer sold to publicans in Ireland is up to 20 per cent higher than in the UK”

And
“I don’t want to put pressure on Diageo, but we [Wetherspoons pubs] simply baulked at paying a higher price for Guinness in Ireland than we do in the UK”
Cheeky feckers, using our water, spewing fumes across Dublin (there is a distinct stench across much of Dublin 8, especially in Rialto, Liberties) and then to scalp your customers?
A stench is it. My neighbourhood doesn’t stink and I live next door to the brewery.
Any chance you’ve become inured to it Clampers. I certainly get a distinctive hoppy smell all around that area. “Stench” might be going too far, it’s not like dead carcasses or Montana parfum de femmes, but it’s not pleasant either.
Why would you ever care about something like this?
Its called ‘fun’ ya sap :)

At first glance, I thought that postwas referring to Diageo as a near monopoly.
