Ah here.

Last night.

Forster Street,  Galway.

Anyone?

An Pucán

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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

        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.

    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 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.

      1. Kim Cardassian

        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

        1. Pat

          I thought you were saying Bodge was deliberately cherry picking sock-puppet nuttytweets and presenting them as actual news

          My bad

      The Guy Fawkes mask avatar to boot – because anonymous smart-arsed willys taking photos of bars is real resistance and rebellion.
