And for about 6 months every oul lad pub smelled like farts.
BASTARDS!!
Took the fun out of the pub!
“in terms of”
I’ve often wondered is there any country where more things are either banned or compulsory than Ireland.
Man’s got rizz
I still remember the kick up about this. It was the biggest problem in the booming economy.
Simpler times
What is this post? An attempt to get us to remember how cool and ahead of the time Michal and FF were? Get lost.
Come on FF bootlickers downvote me hard!
Shut up it isnt i couldnt be THAT old
Does that sign annoy anyone else, or is it just me?
Probably one of the greatest acts by any Irish politician ever. He was under serious pressure to withdraw it by the pub and hotel lobby. But he stuck to his guns.
Now there’s 74 countries that have done the same. They would never have done it if Ireland hadn’t shown the way.
I’ll always have respect for Michael Martin for having the courage to introduce it. If you asked Irish people today, to reintroduce smoking in pubs, they’d laugh.
Jesus wept, 20 years! I would have thought like ten or twelve.
I was telling the lads at work how bad it was in pubs back in the day when talking about the return thing and how eventually it’ll be seen as a good thing and now I’m pretty sure they hadn’t been born at the time…..
Who would’ve thought symptoms of banning smoking in pubs is hair loss
Banned smoking yet you be able to do everything else in a pub❄️❄️
It was done in a clever way, some friend groups used to spend nights in the smoking area but as we got older that stopped. A few months later no one thought it was a bad idea even the people who were against it at the start. It made pubs nicer to go, it forced them to up their game.
