Pure Mule - Rynaghs on the map!

Post by Doon Massive »

Pure Mule/sh*te:
The latest attempt from RTE at a drama to reflect modern Ireland, set in Banagher.
I presume they will feature a load of lads going to a hurling match, followed by a feed of pints and then struggling to get home from Birr/Tullamore at 5 in the morning with a quare one in tow.

An Edenderry version of the programme would need to be shown well after the watershed I would have thought :)

Btw, was the Harbour Bar listed in the top GAA pubs in the county???

The Harbour Bar is no longer :cry:

It has been closed for months now and rumours abound about the sale of its license. A great spot in it's day.

Its a slim hope it'll fall into the right hands I suppose.

And Doon would be the place to have something like that??

I never like to see anyone slagging Doon. It's one of my favourite suburbs within greater Ferbane.

Different parish!
Face it, Ferbane doesn't cut it, I really feel sorry for all ye Ferbane people, trying to be accepted in Doon, looking for a sense of belonging, if that makes sense.

Ferbane is SO passé
