Killarney on Saturday Night

Having had a mix of sarnies and the delight's of Bob's Catering van during the afternoon and early evening, no need for dinner tonight, so straight to the pub when we got back to Killarney around 9pm.

If Killarney was quiet on Thursday, lively on Friday then tonight it was positively bouncing. There was a constant stream of slow moving cars throughout the whole town centre (mostly Japanese, mostly turbocharged, mostly lowered and mostly covered in plastic body kits).  The pubs were packed and so were the streets as the weather was mild. 

We chose Charlie's Bar which was packed and had a DJ playing some techno, house etc.  It was like being in a party as the pub was effectively turned into a dance floor.  More Smithwick's bitter here.  Which reminds me, if you want to drink bitter in Killarney, it doesn't matter which pub you go in, you get Smithwick's on electric pump.  Where is the choice?  Where is the hand pulled real ale?  Seems there's no market for it in the land of Guiness.
