I was over in Ireland with the dogs a couple of years ago, Ballycommon, County Offaly. I was in this pub in the middle of nowhere, and asked the lady owner "what's the best Irish whiskey" ? She leant over and said " There all shite, your better off drinking Scotch "!! I persisted and she asked an old drunk at the end of the bar his opinion; he said " Sure, without a doubt it's Tulleymore Dew" ! The Landlady then filled a large tunbler to the brim and pushed it across the bar to me. "How much ?" I asked; "away with you, you're a guest" she replied !! I drank it and she insisted I take the branded tumbler with me !! The same lady gave Foxgun Tom six bottles of the stuff as prizes !! Lovely people, and I hope to go back some time !!

 

Cheers.

Plenty of rough places here...roughest pub i've drank in is called 'The Royal' right next to the Marina....was opened up again about 2 years ago but what a shit hole, full of the usual ex cons, mongrels who don't brush their teeth or their hair and the usual idiots who think they're Rocky. Last time i was in there a bird glassed the bar man for no apparent reason, i got told i was looking at someone "i shouldn't" and i'd better "watch my back"...the fella in question was about 65 and pissed as a fart and his nose was battered in every direction so he obviously had a knack for getting his arse kicked :laugh: I only ever went in because i was banging the bar maid, now i'm barred after calling her some choice words when she messed me about :whistling::laugh:

Been in a few dives (most of the pubs around here) but for me the best was a wee village local in N.I when me n a mate was over for a weekend hunting with a few boys from here. Nice pint with a good bunch of lads the craic was great then a wee sing song never seen this before in a boozer, best night in a pub ever for me and a weekend I will never foget.

when i was about 14/15 (late 80s) we were trying to get into a 21 pub in Richmond, the

bouncer was all like "you lads don't want to come in here"

But we just thought he was just questioning our age so we went into full blag mode

 

"No mate, we've been here plenty of times, love the place"

"Some of our mates are already in there"

 

He looked at us sort of oddly, then said "fair enough"

 

and let us in.

 

Our mistake, it was full on blue oyster bar, moustaches every where, leather chaps and hats.

 

We were the centre of attention for the one and only drink we had there before making our escape.
