Public service announcement from your friendly local moderators

dr.bollocko

Hello folks.

Tomorrow is a religious holiday observed primarily by Christians commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his death at Calvary.

As a result of this the off licences and bars and restaurants in Ireland will not be serving alcohol.

Please do not call around to my house with no booze and attempt to steal my booze because you did not "realise" the off licence was closed.

Irish law dictates you must now buy at least 4 times more than any human could possibly ever drink and attempt to drink this all tomorrow while cursing just whoever made you have to resort to this.

Please do not start any more threads about not being able to booze on good friday. We know. Now you know too.

This concludes today's public service announcement.

So does this mean we don't get the annual "why can't I buy drink/can I go to a nightclub at midnight because I need to drink" topics?

Because if so, I don't like this announcement at all.

I need another drink after treading this .

Dr B had an accident. Don't mention it, he's embarrassed.

Anyone

If anybody is looking for someone to blame when they cant purchase alcohol tomorrow, look no further than the Romans.

I would also like to remind people that, for some strange reason, you should only eat fish tomorrow. No meat, just fish. Pork Chops are out, and burgers are an absolute No-No. Fish Fingers are okay, so go for your life. Hotdogs don't have any meat in them, so you should be okay with that. A McFish McSandwich McThingyemebob is also okay, as long as you have a reckless disregard for your continued survival.

Whale is not allowed, because it is a mammal, not a fish. Same goes for Dolphin. Shark fin is fine, so go ahead with those.

I once tried to have a burger on Good Friday, but I was told that just because I had kept the cow in a tank of water (with goggles, snorkel and flippers, for his convenience, of course) during lent, that did not mean it was a fish. The church seems to be a stickler about that. The ISPCC wasn't too happy either, come to think of it.

Just one question: Can clubs and late bars open at midnight tomorrow night?

Yes, they can. I know a few places in Dublin City centre did it last year.

Although I wonder why you'd go to a club with about 2.5 hours left, 10 euro in and 7 euro a drink

If you know the right places in Dublin, you can sesh on until 4/5AM
TBH I rarely head into town before 11.30 anyway, usually arrive in a club around 12

You won't be drinking in any pubs.

And yeah, I'm bitter but at least I'll make sure you're sober so your soul is saved. :pac:

They're allowed open, just not sell alcohol, right?

So could you technically buy beer today and drink in the pub tomorrow?

People buying drink and Easter eggs down at Tesco like they are going out of fashion.
