Didn't think of that. Could have been a wide evening.

Oh yes, the Guinness. I should blame hanging out in Franciscan Well for getting confused with that. That would be the only place in Ireland where they don't serve Guinness.
So time for a pint....

PS Were the four pints of Guiness ordered when the pub was closing? When the bell rang, what. Just a logistical question.
Do you mean a lock'in'?

That would include the local constabulary, of course!

Well, isn't lock in a world wide term? When pubs close the doors, for a while you can keep drinking. So if you are in before it closes, it can be fine for quite a while after.. doors close at midnight, and quit serving at 3 or something like that.

One lock in I had in Ireland in 1995, was in a makeshift bar at the back of a farmhouse. There were still about 10 of us in there at six in the morning, including a Garda Síochána Superintendent. As you can imagine we were all worse for wear.

You must have some stories to tell, Rhisiart

My teenage son thinks a lock-in and a Lan-Party are the same thing ...
