Let's not be too hasty here. I am sure this priest is very sorry and has prayed for forgiveness. There is a shortage of priests now for some reason and we afford to lose a single one.

"...the infamous 'No Blacks, No Dogs, No Irish' signs seen across America back in the 1950s." I think you will find that slogan was not from the US but the UK.

Don't think so, but "trilling" is what tribbles do.

In the interior rectangle of the LiDAR photo the ditches and banks don't seem to line up either side of the road. Is there a reason for that I wonder?

Going to launch a new version of Monopoly. When you land on someone else's property you kill them and take all their stuff. It's the Israel version.

Says in the article that Genesee Cream Ale was, at one time, the biggest selling beer in the US. It wasn't. It passed Ballantine XXX Ale as the biggest selling ale in the US at some point, but was never remotely close to outselling Bud, Miller, Coors and their low calorie equivalents.

Murphy's 170th Anniversary Whiskey Cask Stout at Bishopstown Bar, Cork. Went to a dentist appointment and found myself a few minutes walk from one of the 9 pubs serving this beer. Would have been rude not to stop in and have one (well two).

Having the correct glassware adds greatly to the enjoyment of the beer. @mookiedog.bsky.social

Certainly seemed like more than that.

I can't say I looked. The barman told me the amount. I offered to buy a glass but they wouldn't let me.

Irrelevant Tom @layabout99.bsky.social · 19/09/2026
I think it is was 440 ml, so about 3/4 of a pint.

It's a damn nice, friendly pub too. And a decent beer selection including some of my favourites like Blarney Muskerry and Black's KPA.

The Cost of Living Crisis is fake, the Energy Companies boosted their profit margins by 4.5x, Supermarkets quadrupled their profits, and now we are paying their excess profits forever.

Every pub in Cork gets one or just selected bars?
