Sheebeens: Why don't the media give their addresses

Bricriu · 06-01-2021 4:29pm #1

Why don't the media spoilsports publish the addresses of Sheebeens when they publish their hysterical, shock-horror reports of the cops raiding them?

I'd like to give them some custom, but I need to know where they are to do so.

You could always set your own one up and stick your address up here.

We won't give you the address because you'll go there and get infected, then come on here and give us all internet-covid.

I'd love to go to the pub.

Keep wearing your mask you'll get there eventually.

You're obviously not in the loop so...

Just set up your own keg.

setting up a shebeen in a pandemic once is stupid, but continuing to operate one after being raided by the guards would be on another level of stupid.

Anti-virus software is your friend.

We've been told that three times before and here we are

The locals would be all giving out because they can't have a few quiet pints anymore.

To be honest you'd have to be in the know to be invited to one of them.
They aren't going to invite you if they thought you had a big mouth or were a rat.

Why would you want to go to the sheebeens that have been raided and closed down? Surely you'd want the addresses of the ones that the Gardaí don't know about?

Sure most of them would be open again within a day or two, having given the cops a few 'vouchers' for free pints once they are open again.
