how many ppl drank on Good Friday?

The Bollox

I did, I drank more on that day than I did any other day of my life! now THAT was a session, fookin' hell! I had 14 cans o' bud, three of them polluted with scotch 3 shots, all B52's and 4 cocktails, all oif them were Pampa Villa's(sp?) {they are Tequilla, Tia Maria and Quantro, tastes like a Terry's chockolate orange and is VERY potent!}

and the antics we got upto, we made 2 human pyramids, both were 3 stories high and then later we played strip Donkey (the game where you throw a ball to each other and if you drop the ball you get a letter) but our rules were that you lost clothes if you dropped the ball OR caught it with two hands! try doing THAT pissed!

As mad as you are, as utterly mind-bending as your antics could be, mine top yours: I drank some cups of milk and watched TV. Can anyone challenge me?! Dare they?!

i dont beleive you. i didnt drink. why do u think it's important that you drank? some kind of rebellion? the highly repressive catholic restraints on your personal life? i think ppl with an age less than 25 are really talking tru their holes about catholic church this and that.

the pubs are closed on good friday.
christmas and stephen's day are bank holidays
no abortion
what else do u want to complain about

Jesus! Ixoy, calm down!.... my God... any more crazy than that and you might just explode!!

EDIT: Didn't drink Good Friday as i swore myself not to drink and to get project work / documentation for it done. But as soon as the baqsuille spamming began, i sat back with a bottle of Bud and enjoyed!

it wasn't so much "oh ****, the bible says this is a day for not drinking alcymahol, so lets **** the bibbe" no, its more because I work in a bar and I NEVER get to go out on friday or saturday night, so me and a few mates from work, and a few of their mates aswell had a barbeque with beer, and it became christened the beerBQ, its just a good laugh, the only reason I brought it up was because apparently a LOT of ppl from my town went on a big bender good Friday aswell

Had a few myself. Me and lads sat in for few hands of poker and some beer but the host couldnt find the cards so we watched rubbish on the tele and had the beers. Not the most exciting night but it was Good Friday after all.

HERETIC!!!

Chugged (quite) a few beers in a pub in Madrid and watched one of those catholic procession thingys the Spanish do so well(ku klux klan outfits, loud matching bands et al).

They don't seem to have the non drinkin' on good friday issue at all. At their prices it's positively compulsory if you're Irish. A good night can be had for 20 quid. Our ripoff culture is unreal(and you can have a smoke in peace without getting a lecture from some twit on the dangers).

Naos

oh, its on.. i also ate chicken, ham and bacon that day. And had a few beers.

I don't know a lot about Christianity but why are pubs and off licenses forced to shut yet chippers are allowed open?

passive

you seemingly don't know a lot about the banning of drink either... chippers don't tend to serve alcohol that much.

I wasn't bothered drinking as an act of defiance and didn't even eat any meat as it happened.. but I ended up having a glass of wine given to me be my girlfriends parents... so i feel sufficiently blasphemous

I presume you are being sarcastic? If not, why are places (pubs) not allowed serve drink yet others (chippers) are allowed serve meat?

I sat in a mates house and watched a video and smoked a few joints. I like drinking in the pub so I went out on Thursday.

I'm not even sure if I had meat or not, I'm not that pushed either way.

Don't forget to pee before you die. Remember; there's no relief in hell

I couldn't find a house party, so I just had a can or two, a bit of smoke, and had a four player pro evo match with a few mates.

I wasn't really... Drink is the primary function of a pub. Chips are the primary function of a chipper... are the butchers open on good friday? cos if so that would have been a far better example for the meat thing. I can't try explain why i think alcohol is more enforced than meat because i keep hitting the brick wall of my total disagreement with the stupid rule...

I know a lot of people seem to be given out here, about the fact that pubs are forced to shut while fast food places are allowed to open. Well in reality the pubs and off-licences are bound to fare off pretty well on the day, as forbidding someone to do something, only makes that person want it more.

Im guessing there were many a pub over the country that opened their back doors and proceeded to trade as usual. Ill even bet some stayed open.

As for me yes I drank a few beers!

Kevin_rc_ie

the bar ppl were getting paid for friday, dont think joe chipper is going to paying joey the chipper seller for not selling chips on friday.

cartman

i hear ya mate! i drank a disgusting amount on good friday

The_B_Man

my mate moved into a house in belgard recently. he invited us up but i hadn't any drink. but luckily my ma said she had a bottle of wine in the kitchen (parents dont drink at all) that was given to her and i that i could have it (funny coz she wouldnt let me eat meat though she made fish for dinner ). i never drink wine and in fact it was my 1st ever full bottle of wine i had EVER! after all, wine is the beer of jesus!

was a good night. ended up borrowin one of the girls rollerblades and bladin home after gettin donated some bottle of fat frog. good fun, especially coz its down a hill all the way (~2km).

Makaveli

You can eat fish on Good Friday.
Well you can eat whatever you want, but you're not supposed to eat meat if your Catholic.

nlgbbbblth

I had a couple of beers in the afternoon because it was sunny and people in our cul de sac were all out.

Ate lamb for dinner.

Btw - on this "one day a year" thing.
I'd gladly prefer the pubs to be shut for the whole third week of January (5 days Mon - Fri) if they could be allowed open Good Friday.

reason: very few people have money on the third week of January. are broke after Christmas and haven't been paid for January - so they wouldn't be in the pub anyway

while Good Friday is the Friday of a Bank holiday weekend, people are off work, people are home from abroad etc and would like to go to the pub

The_B_Man
