The haul of beer contained dozens of cans and bottles of all brands of beer including Guinness, Fosters and Becks. The booze bullion came from a nearby off-licence premises which was being renovated. It was noticed by a passer-by who soon began to unload the haul on to the footpath.
Other passers-by began to join him in claiming the free beer. Some of the revellers used plastic bags to load their booze into before going off on their merry way. One passer-by said: “It was so funny. Traffic came to a bit of a standstill on the Main Street as these guys unloaded the skip.
“There was one guy on top of all the other discarded rubbish who realised there was a bevvy of booze below. I don’t think they could believe their luck.”

Christmas came early for these alcoholics.
ReplyDeleteI don't think a person has to be alcoholic to jump at the chance of free booze! Although then again, they are Irish :p
ReplyDeleteCame for the irish joke, leaving satisfied
ReplyDeleteTo anonymous#1: please take your unfounded prejudice elsewhere. In the european league of alcohol consumption per capita Ireland doesn't even make the top half. Whatever you might believe the Irish are not heavy drinkers.
ReplyDeleteHailing from northern ireland myself, I diagree with Gareth. You only have to look at St. Paddy's day in NI and find the riot police out in force.
ReplyDeleteSomething that made me laugh and roll my eyes recently were the bombs planted outside the "Londonderry City of Culture" office. If retarded hooliganism was a culture, I guess they're fairly apt.
@Gareth - the ":p" was meant to denote harmless humour derived from a widely-known stereotype. Perhaps I should append "j/k" as well...?
ReplyDelete@Ratz - cheers for the info, made me smile :)
