A couple sat by the bar, so close they can order from their table. But people told to put their mask on while ordering stood at the bar by bar staff. No logic. #ireland #covid #NoVaccinePassports #SayNoToVaccineMandate #sheep @anpucangalway pic.twitter.com/1Ceuou3kmA

Ah here.
Last night.
Forster Street, Galway.
Anyone?
Meanwhile…
The Irish Hotels Federation said Government had confirmed that the new closing time restriction applies to hotel bars and all events being hosted, including weddings, whether guests are residents or not.
In a statement, it said: “Due to the current prevalence of the coronavirus in the community, we are hearing from our members that businesses are adopting a cautious approach in relation to hosting business events and meetings.”
The hotels federation said that public health remains its number one priority.
Closing time change applies to hotel bars, hotel events (RTÉ)
Never thought An Pucan would look like that inside.
Anyone know is it any good?
No snitching, bloody curtain twitchers and bed wetters, also…here’s some covert photos with big red arrows.
Great advertising eh?
Reminds of back in the day in Belfast when a new gay venue was opening. Someone (owner) would accidentally tip off the local bible bashers whom on time and date would turn up to protest. Then also accidentally (very prone) tip off the papers that the God Squad were protesting outside a new gay venue.
Result- free advertising across all the main newspapers and radio. On a good night- the UTV news too.
the straw that breaks the camels back???

… there is currently no vaccine for a broken camel’s back…
Maybe the bar doesn’t want photos of maskless people being served at the bar circulating online.
Should have just called the COVID Snitch Line

Probably to protect the bar staff, to whom they are conversing directly. Splitting hairs here.
They’re just following the rules. If they let one person at the bar wear a mask then they could end up arguing with someone about why they are forcing them to wear a mask but not the person beside them or ahead of them.
That about sums it up alright…the rules are just nonsense, people should just use common sense and if unhappy with others common sense..go home.
Simple solution, free tests before entry to any indoor spaces. Then enjoy yourselves!
ffs why do people make an issue out of this? put a fupn mask on, get your pint and take it off when you sit down. it won’t bleedn kill ye.
Because it doesn’t make sense, scottser.
it doesn’t have to make sense. if it makes those around you feel safe then what harm?
If it makes me feel safe if you have a bag over your head in my presence, will you do it?
stop being a prick.
Hahaha! But yes Chris, please do put a bag over your head.
It only doesn’t make sense because the bar is taking the piss. You’re allowed sit at your table without a mask, but if you’re standing at the bar, you’re not, simple. They can’t cover every eventuality, like “what if the pub moves a table right up against the bar”? Everyone should just use their common sense rather than picking holes in everything.
G’wan outta that, you have no interest in sense. Just an honest days griftin!
Do you know what else doesn’t make sense? The twitter account @R_whiteUK
Anonymous account
No followers
Follows 2 accounts; @elonmusk & @visitscotland
Only 2 tweets, and both tweets were sent within the past hour
Picked up by Broadsheet within that timeframe and shared as a story
So while everyone is arguing about masks and pints, no one is asking who is behind the account, what is their agenda and why Broadsheet picked it up?
One thing is for sure, their agenda is not covid.
And that Bodge, is what you call basic research.
Look and learn you mad bastard!
“ and why Broadsheet picked it up?”
Hashtags man. I’d say Bodger if following certain hashtags.
Makes sense.
That new account thing is a bit weird though.
The eye brow raising isn’t for Bodger or Broadsheet, they bring the news not make it. But the twitterati person is the variant of concern
I thought you were saying Bodge was deliberately cherry picking sock-puppet nuttytweets and presenting them as actual news
My bad
Bodger drinks Coca Cola doesn’t he?
Coke Zero
The Guy Fawkes mask avatar to boot – because anonymous smart-arsed willys taking photos of bars is real resistance and rebellion.
Has anyone complimented the headline?
Let me be the first.
yeah ol’ bodge can certainly bring them.
