AND FINALLY: Only the Irish

You can buy an air ticket out of Dublin for as little as €9.99

That does not mean you have to fly.

With Ireland on lockdown where can you drink socially?

In Departures of course.

The bars at Dublin Airport have been kept busy.

Customers miss their plane.

It’s then drinking time until they are chucked out.

Think of the €9.99 as an entrance fee.

You need a passport for this one!

Ah!! The true traditional, beautiful and welcoming Eireann! ....for sure! "....
