“The truth comes out when you’re drunk”
has to be the biggest lie ever told!!

Tell us the biggest lie you or a friend have told when the drink was in. The unhinged versions are preferred!

Here’s a few stories to start.

{Name} once argued with a friend wan night years ago that she had all 32 county jerseys. He challenged her the next day (she didn’t remember the night before for some odd reason) turned out she had 7 👩‍🦰

Back in the day when Facebook was the main source for socials and wishing your virtual fb friends a happy birthday was mandatory, by the end of a birthday girl’s day, half pished, she wrote on her status “Anyone who didn’t wish me happy birthday will you please remove yourself from my friends list” She was mortified the next morning 🙈

“I once told my mother after a few that I was leaving the island to go and work as a lollipop woman in OZ next week, I didn’t have a passport and I didn’t even like lollipops” 🤷‍♀️

“Told my girlfriend (dating at the time) one night that I was asked to be a stunt double for Liam Neeson” 🕺

“Always tell my friends to ring me anytime! Or that we’ll hang out next week..
I never answer my phone and once sober I’ve no interest meeting them for anything” 🙄

“Said to my boss once that I’d work every hour he needs, not a bother!
I don’t even wanna be there at any time” 👺

“I’d love to bust you- I say to my best friend” 🤡

“We should grab a drink together some night” I’ve said to someone I can’t stand! 🙅‍♂️

“After tonight that’s me off it” 🤥

“I’m gonna get up early tomorrow and start the gym” 🤷‍♂️

So no, the truth does NOT come out when we’re drunk, the truth comes out more when we’re sober.. As most of our staff here have worked in pubs over 20 years, we know that’s not the truth! So if your anxiety is playing up over something you think you said or done, don’t worry about it and yes we’re all talking about ye.. JK we’ve all been there and you’re the only one thinking about it. (Unless you crossed lines, then we’ll talk) ✌️

Love you, bye 🥰

“Tonight will be the night that I will fall for you” 🎤… anyway

First up is Aidan! Aidan is a barber by trade, so he’s usually the one holding the clippers, not sitting in the chair! If you know him, you’ll know he hates Guinness, and if you’ve noticed he’s already been sporting a bit of a comb-over and following ‘most’ of his 5 brothers bar 1, you’ll know this head shave isn’t quite as big a sacrifice as it might be for some! But all jokes aside, Aidan is stepping up tonight to support an incredible cause.

Seosamh! Seosamh is a pub manager, so he’s well used to looking after a busy crowd and making sure everyone’s having a good time. He’s also a big fan of singing, and if there’s a karaoke microphone nearby, you’ll usually hear him before you see him! Now, he likes to tell everyone he’s a bit of an introvert… although anyone who’s heard him belt out a tune (on the street, on his own) or seen him working a packed pub might find that hard to believe! Tonight, he’s proving that he’s not just full of songs and stories.. he’s also got a huge heart!

Patrick! Or should I say… Conor? To be fair, it’s an easy mistake to make.. Patrick and his brother Conor are so alike that one of us spent far too long calling him by the wrong name! Patrick works in a local dairy, so he’s no stranger to an early start and plenty of hard work. Whether he’s known as Patrick or Conor tonight, one thing’s for certain, he’s here for a fantastic cause.

Mark (Taggs) If you can’t find Mark, don’t panic, he’s probably looking for his phone… again! Between the odd bet, a few drinks, and somehow managing to misplace his phone on what feels like a weekly basis, he’s always keeping life interesting. One thing he never loses, though, is his aim on the dart board. He’s a seriously talented darts player and always up for a bit of friendly competition. Tonight, he’s taking on a completely different challenge by shaving his head and ‘care for cancer’ is very close to the heart

Joe! Joe is the proud owner of Patrick… and Conor.. the two brothers who look so alike. Joe’s a class barman, and has stepped in for us in recent days 🦸 so he’s no stranger to serving up the craic, but if you’ve ever met him, you’ll know his biggest trademark is that infectious laugh. Once Joe gets laughing, everyone else joins in too! Tonight, he’s swapping pulling pints for the barber’s chair as he bravely shaves his head to raise vital funds.

Last but certainly not least, we have Lee! Lee is a teacher by day and a one-man band by night, so whether he’s in the classroom or entertaining a crowd, he’s always keeping people on their toes. (Irish dancing I may add too) Now, unlike the rest of the lads, Lee was so organised that he actually shaved his head before tonight because he was heading off on holidays! Although, between ourselves, he was already making a good start on the balding, so he probably wasn’t giving up too much anyway! But regardless of when the hair disappeared, Lee has proudly taken part to help raise.

Fair play to these lads, your kindness has not gone unnoticed!

See you all later..

Love you bye
