Free Steak for 2 incl Pint - Competition in here!!!

Berty

Having spoken to Ken of Synotts bar there is some good news for the Limerick City Forum.

He wants to give you all the opportunity to win a prize. The prize is 2 Steak Dinners and a Pint of your choice in Synotts bar.

With all the much spoken doom and gloom on the Limerick city forum of late why not have a local business man come on here and try to win your hearts and minds by filling your stomachs with a juicy steak and thirst quenching pint. Im sure he might even throw in some mushrooms and chips as well.

How do you win this amazing prize? Well, its not as easy as just throwing your name in a hat. What you need to do is come up with a "Limerick"* and you must use the words Steak and Synotts.

For those pedants of the forum. These are the ONLY considerations of a "Limerick" being used in the judging.

A limerick is a five-line poem in anapestic or amphibrachic meter with a strict rhyme scheme (aabba), which intends to be witty or humorous, and is sometimes obscene with humorous intent

You don't need to PM me or Ken or e-mail Synotts.

Just put your "Limerick" on this thread and Ken will pick his winner. This competition will stay open until some stage on Thursday evening the 16th September to give as many people a chance to have a go.


Remember folks this is only a bit of fun and if Ken gets a few more people talking about his steaks and heading out trying them then great. Its about time a publican gave back to the city/county so lets keep this fun.

Try to keep it clean as well OK! Any rude "Limericks" feel free to PM them to me.

[Insert Mod Edit here]

Mod Edit: I have given this thread the all-clear. If this competition runs smoothly, we may consider running others in the future. Best of luck!

Have you ever heard of Synotts the pub?
Lads 'tis a great place to stop for some grub
For me the steak burger
While watching the rugger
Would beat any night in a club!

Thats tough to beat, nice one

cyberspi

am I allowed put in one more?

If you're in the mood for good Guinness,
just head to the place they call Synotts.
And sure while you're there,
why not sample their fair,
the unbeatable steaks are the limit.

This is a bit iffy, but if your not in you can't win, here goes....:p

I went to Synotts one nite with the missus
Was greeted by Ken with roses and kisses
we ordered some grub
Had a few pints in the pub
and said 'what a fcukin great steak this is'

angelll

Twas a typical morning in the house of angelll
Kids screaming for cartoons,spongebob or ben 10,
Said i to myself,let's go down to Ken
I'm sick of cooking on sundays to be fair
We'll all go to synotts for their steak,medium or rare?

When your head is baked and you're busy
to cook would simply be silly
drop down there to Synnots
for a steak to your taste
to pass on their food would just be a waste

You don't really get the whole "Limerick" thing do you?

We may be in the debts of a deep Recession
No Longer spending money like it’s going out of Fashion
Why not head out to Synnotts pub
For their fab value deals on drink n’ grub
Who knows, it could be the start to a great session

Good one but.....

Kens offer of steak is enticing
And his efforts they are enterprising
To get round the mods
He'll fill up your gobs
While Synotts gets free advertising

s_carnage

While driving through Limerick on a short break
My belly was beginning to ache
When in my blind spot
Synotts did pop
And cure my troubles with a beautiful steak!!

Twin-go

You don't have to be a Sultan or a Sheik,
To head over to Synnots for some fine Steak,
You'd get such a thrill,
When you looked at your bill,
Sure, you'd have been mad to stay at home and instead Bake.

One night we fancied some grub,
We asked the lads on boards, whats a good pub?
So we legged it to synnots,
Had a steak and pint in it,
Now i can see why its worth the hubbub!

Henry Ford III

There was a young bar boss called Ken
who invited us pick up our pens.
The first prize was a steak
and a pint that'd make
Limerick Boardsies compose once again.

phill106

There once was a bar called Synotts,
Where i heard craic and good food were found in it,
People come from afar,
To sit at the bar,
And end up with a belly with steak in it!

phill106

There was boardsie called Ken,
That we all wanted as a friend,
He offered pints and a steak,
The offer in synnots for the uptake,
Quickly before it does end!


PS i am now starving for a steak

dave 27

there once was a place called Synotts,
who hosted a meal for my winnins,
iv contacts with munster, so give me your number,
and we'll all head in after munster v Leinster!

padma

There once was a fridge in Synotts
Where The Steaks had gone off in it
So they called up the boards
And gathered the Hoards
To join in the competition to win it

padma

The steak had gone off in Synotts
So the manager says you gotta bin it
But the cook says, no way man
So he comes up with a plan
Just advertise to win it.

padma

There once was a steak in Synotts
Where the cook rubbed his penis in it
So they says as a joke
Cos everyones broke
Put it in a competition to win it

sorry mods just saw the rule of no rude "Limericks"

padma

The lad who won the competition
Will never be allowed in to synotts to piss in
Cos he called up the boys
Ate his steak and they made big noise
And got kicked out the door by petition

padma

Sorry lads on all the posts just got on a roll with the whole thing

Crabzork

There once was a man from stab city,
Who gave away steaks for a ditty,
He jumped up on synnots bar,and called from afar.
Just try not to make it to witty.


Please excuse the spelling

padma

after winning the steak I unbuckle
my pants be too tight by a knuckle
must have been out o me wits
to eat at synotts
Thats why I'm having me a chuckle

Itsdacraic

The name over the door it is Synott
And Ken pushes the mods to the limit
The free pint it was stale
Poor Berty did wail
And the steak that he served me was minute

osarusan

To win a Synnotts pint and a steak
There's simply no rule I won't break
To a website make haste
This poem cut and paste
And I just hope that Ken's on the take.

kenoconnell

For the next six months its work in the rain,
Synotts is the place that gives me da pain.
On friday i'll strecth to get a break,
It'll be a quaility Jim Flavin steak,
And a good few Guinness to numb the brain.....

I think that ones the winner!!!!!!

is it four or five lines???? :pac::pac:

Liam Byrne

A boards competition from Synotts
But you need to be in it to win it
A big steak was on offer
With recession'ry coffers
So I thought I'd say "gimme a minute"

[ minute, steak - get it ? ]

cyberspi

In town there's a pub thats called Synotts
and some fair handsome men do be in it
Paulie goes for the steak
Wally goes for the cake
Or a pint when Mcgahon permits it

Its all about the flow Ken

natsuko

Raise a glass to Synotts and toast,
The finest food they have, its no boast.
Instead of forks they have rakes,
To pick up their steaks.
The best place as far as the coast!

snowman707

now limerick has many appeals
too numerous to mention in a week
but none would compare
to a steak medium rare
'nd a jar in Synott's bar,

kenoconnell

Hey all....

The limericks are looking good, a bit too good if you ask me, if ya know what I mean... online.com.... u thought 911 was a conspiracy:cool::cool::cool:

Don't forget the prize is 2 Steaks, big or small, fat or thin, what ever way u like them...... and not just a pint, not 2 drinks but drinks for the evening for you and your guest, thats forty drinks for you if you can drink 40 drinks and not drunk!!!!!! basically we obviously have to be sensible and not make you drunk as per the liquor act... So it drinks for 2 for the evening, all night if you like :-)...

Enjoy the fun and keep the Limericks rolling IN>>>

Ken

SuperWoody101

There was a young man named Kenneth
Who worked in this great pub called Synotts
There steaks are so yummy and fill up your tummy
So get one today
There well worth the money

Bagmagnet

Everyone that posts here wants a break,
But what really causes them to ache
Is that there's only one winner
Who's fit for a dinner
At Synotts to enjoy some steak.

Raiser

Synotts Pub is certainly not dear
For a Steak soon followed by Beer
Just be sure to tell Ken
You're a Magician and then
You can make the whole lot disappear.

____________________________________

A Man called to Synnotts with an ache
That could only be cured by Steak
Said he with some glee
Please give me three
'Cause four is one more than I take.

____________________________________

Ken suffered seriously with a Crick
Which he soothed with some Synotts Garlic
But make no mistake
It was still good with Steak
For a price that was damn hard to lick.

____________________________________

A Cow passed by Synotts with a Moo
Ken nodded and said 'how do you do'?
The Beast got the bump
Kenny got its Steak Rump
And a damn tasty creature it was too.

____________________________________

A Vampire came to Synotts for Steak
So Ken killed him outright with a Stake.
Said he with a grin
Quick, come on within
We can end the next one with a Rake.

kagni

If you're looking to head out and meet,
your friends for a pint and a feed.
You needn't think twice,
just take my advice,
Go to Synotts - their steak can't be beat!

stupidusername

When you're feeling really hungry
And your tummy is awfully grumbly
You can have a big steak
And it'll be great,
'cause at Synotts it's all lovely jubley!
:D:D

Twin-go

There once was a Taoiseach called Brian Cowen,
Who was drunk on the radio in a dressing gown,
He should have gone to Synnotts Instead,
Tried their Steak and fresh Bread,
It would make him look less of a Clown.

Berty

Right so, last day of this. Get them in before 8pm and Ken will have a look through them and pick out the winner!!

Daisy Steiner

To Synnott's we'll go for a break,
To demolish a very big steak,
And drink bottles of booze
As if on a cruise
And leave a good tip for Ken's sake.

Berty

Sneaking in a very good one in the dying hours.

Anybody else?

phill106

To Synnots bar for some steak!
Guranteed Irish cow, Not fake!
With it have some wine and some beer
The Bill will be nothing to fear
And i recommend the potatoes...baked

Daisy Steiner

There once was a pub named Synott's,
Whose staff were all fans of the Guinness,
Then Ken came on Boards,
And offered the hordes,
Free steak if a limerick could win it.
