namenotavailabl wrote: » An appalling thing to happen and a truly shockingly scandalous attitude from the guards. Wholly unacceptable to allow that sort of activity pass without a modicum of effort on their part to "be seen to do at least something" following an assault. I don't know where a complaint should be addressed but I'd suggest a written complaint wouldn't go amiss to the Garda Ombudsman.

You would think if this happen regularly in a certain area the Gardai would keep an eye on the place.

If you think Gardai are bad, Portugese policia are without a doubt the most useless shower of mogs I have ever seen or met. And I wont even go into the whole A&E debocle, but your GF is right it goes to show that it can happen anywhere, unfortunately.

There is no shortage of premises for them to consider if they are - the Old Oak and the one that was on Bridge St (forget the name) come to mind as suitable premises. Wetherspoons for the uninitiated are a UK chain that serve up a large range of beers plus they are cheap on the main one's. They also serve a food but have no music and only a limited range of pubs have sky sports etc. They would shake up pricing in town if they did cast an eye over Tralee.

Granted, pubs in town could go a bit further in embracing the craft beer trend and improve their selection, but i think its slowly improving.
xxyyzz wrote: » You're right, I haven't Now that you mention it, franchise pubs wouldn't appeal to me much anyway. I just checked Weatherspoons beer menu and it is pretty limited to say the least. Out of interest, which bars in town are making an effort? Are they selling actual craft beers or a couple of bottles of out of date Erdinger in the fridge?
