The Irish Times.

First lockdown Angel Pub, one we frequent was doing takeaway beer, selling it £1:50 a pint, deal is you take your own container,,, some of mates agree to meet up park not far from pub (I didn't go), so mate Gary arrives pub, he don't know about bring own container thing, so he goes to mini supermarket next to pub to get something, he sees a jar of pickles and thinks jar looks like a pint glass so buys them, bins pickles gets bar to wash out jar and fill with beer,,, gets to park and all other lads are sitting with two litre lemonade bottles full of beer, so he's got a pint and they've got approx four,,, so he's back and forward to pub like a yoyo,,, I say to him why not just buy a two litre bottle of lemonade to get bottle,,, he says I'd already wasted money on pickles,,,,, tight git...

Government here is reacting to a Twitter holier than thou twitter frenzy, rather than having a feckin cohesive plan going forward. Thankfully, they have Bojo as a close neighbour, making them look good
