      They close for 3 hours, a chance to count the takings. Jammed wall to wall.🍺🍻🍺🍻🍺👍😃😄😅👏👏🥰🥰🥰🍺🍻
      Like the Englishman in Lisdoonvarna, couldn't believe the pubs open round the clock. He saw and guard and asked him when are the pubs supposed to close.
      Oh says the wily guard, 1st of October. Slainte.🍺🍻🍺🍻🍺🍻🍺keep her lit.

    My earliest memory of Puck was the summer of '69 as a 7yr old. Killorglin comes alive at every Puck & this is a great (but short) clip bringing back so many memories of my youth; thanks for posting... 👍👍👍
