Smooth my aµ$€! The Corpo were not very quick to make repairs and when they did, they didn't mark the trenches they opened very well and the resurfacing was mediocre at best. You are viewing Dublin of the sixties through rose tinted glasses.

Pints of porter served at room temperature, a very acquired taste indeed. But I remember being in a Dublin pub, it wasa Sunday, I was going to the all Ireland football final. It was about 12:30 , and sitting ina corner was a well dressed wee man , I guess he was mid to late 70s. It was an old pub , nothing chic , but nice. He was sitting very content looking , reading a Sunday paper , pint of Guinness and smoking a pipe. The next day, the Republic would ban smoking in pubs. I often think of that seen , it was picture of contentment, and wondered about how that wee man would cope next Sunday without his pipe. No more old style pub culture 😢

Many 's the alcoholic that was spawned in these pubs. After sculling down way too many pints he'd then go home to lash out at the wife & kids. Here "the pint" is glorified above all. Many's the wages that were frittered away "down the pub" - money that was desperately needed to feed the growing number of babbies at home. There was recently a Guinness add that claimed "behind every great village, there's Guinness". In my experience, behind many a village, there's ignorance, poverty and brutality - all amplified by "the pint".
