    Love the irony of a guy complaining about cheap alcohol, and one of his points is some people dont have much money.

    This issue is getting too serious at this stage... I think we need a Minister For Drink... and either get Cowan or McDaid to man the post.... (the position comes with a chauffeur driven car obviously)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,949 ✭✭✭✭IvyTheTerrible


    Aw the poor pub owners, god love them.

    Pub prices have driven people to drink at home

    Barman:"Its half eleven, do you want the last drink"

    Thats part of the reason why people stay at home.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,114 ✭✭✭mike kelly


    people should be forced to drink in pubs, Joe

    Alan Shatter listens to Liveline. Emergency legislation on alcohol sales to be banned from midnight.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,949 ✭✭✭✭IvyTheTerrible


    Pubs were created for a reason...yeah to make money, you hypocrite.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    I don't mind pubs but I'd rather sit at home with a few mates or by myself and break out the Xbox. Cheap and cheerful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,579 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Ah jaysus I thought Anthony was going to be a Jim corr type. Pubs closes at half eleven is it ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,212 ✭✭✭Jaysoose

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,873 ✭✭✭Skid

    Publicans are getting shafted and the pub trade is dying.

    Surely a drop in prices is the way to go.
