The ONLY After Hours Good Friday Drinking Thread.

Tea_Bag

as the title says.

thanks

chin_grin

Wow. Really?

Dravokivich

All the time, everytime... Any pubs/clubs have to shut shop from midnight.

garv123

last drinks during the week are half 11 anyway monday-thursday and "meant" to be out by 12 so i dont see there been much of a difference unless they have a late license.

danniemcq

you mean OP doesn't know the secret code and knock?

Pal

Thought the Church had no credibility left

Tea_Bag

Can we not just post a sticky on the top of AH saying "Yes, the pubs close at Midnight, don't make a bloody topic!" ?

The exact thread is only a few topics below this one!

godtabh

What I can NEVER understand is, why the hell do they enforce licensing laws a CLOSING times? Why not SERVING times?

IE: Why can't they say "A licensed premises can only serve alcohol during these hours, but they can remain open for any other business whenever the f*ck they want to?"

It's not just about drink. I'd be happy to go to a nightclub and stop drinking at midnight or go to one tomorrow and not drink at all. Likewise I'd be happy to stop drinking at 2:30, what I don't get is why we have to actually leave the building at that time as well.

Surely serving alcohol and having a place open for people are two separate issues?

Of course they can. Its just people looking for something else to moan about. Havent you noticed that the people on Boards (well more specifically After Hours) are never happy unless they're moaning and complaining about anything and everything.

Can people not defend ridiculous, archaic laws for no reason but to feel superior and exude pseudo-maturity?

ForceOfNature

sorry if this has been asked already but does anybody know if pubs close tonight at midnight?????

omen80

I think I'll just head out earlier tonight and if we get kicked out at 12 then so be it!

Of course people can go one day without drinking but it's the principle......why should everyone be forced to stay at home because of some silly old-fashioned law.

James_LWAU

The nightclubs here in Dundalk are advertising business as usual so I guess i'll have to take there word

I actuly firmly belive its not a case that people can not go with out drink, but that the choice of buying it, or spending the afternoon/evening the pub has been taken away from them.

Not just boardies, but people generally.

dollyk

did you all run and get your daily allowance of alcohol.
Or will you abstain .:rolleyes:

aw but will they last till tomorrow ?

It's mad to think, two days a year you can't buy alcohol, and the whole place goes mad to try and stock up.

Any excuse for a piss up

Overheal

Stock up on alchohol.













That is all.

Seriously, every year we get a bajingo of threads "ah Q_Q i couldnt buy booze 1 day out of the year" or some such malarky. Come on now, just, get out there and buy your booze ahead of time; at least that way when you're making threads to rabble about how the government takes away your freedom to buy what you want on a religious holiday you can at least be drunk while you do so! The End. Cue Applause. Come on now. Don't be shy.

some_dose

Done and done.






And I mean done

hondasam

I Applaud you Overheal.

A lot of Friday evenings, I like to partake of a wee drink or eight, but not every single Friday. Some Fridays I could take it or leave it.

However, even the thought of Good Friday makes me thirsty. It gives me the feeling of dryness at the back of my throat that could only be compared to how a hooker's box must feel like after a long weekend of non-stop humping.

So what is it about Good Friday that makes people feel this way? Is it God's way of getting people to go out on a Thursday for a change, or is there a more logical explanation?

red menace

Don't forget to eat a couple of steaks just before Midnight to carry you through til Saturday, those of you that have religious mammies that is

cosmicfart

Its warm and im sweating! need liquid. need more liquid.

stephenmarr

Saila

the system says you cant drink on GF, so your brain goes oh no? we'll see about that. its the rebel in us...or something

Sad Professor

This will be me tomorrow:

Customer: Why aren't you selling alcohol today?
Me: Because it's Good Friday.
Customer: *blank expression*

x100

It's a stupid law that nobody really cares about except on the day, after which everyone forgets about it.
