RE: Let's gather around the fire - Steem Bounty For Stories
We don't do campfires over here. I come from a cold, wet country so sitting outside is only enjoyable for a few weeks in any year. What we have is the pub. It's where we go after matches, weddings, funerals or birthdays. Every weekend and every occasion. It's the place where all the news is shared and communities formed. Most marriages have started by meeting a persons friend or cousin in the pub.
I have so many good memories from here with friends and family. One of my favorite is when my team won the all-Ireland hurling championship a few years back. It is the biggest trophy in the country in one of the oldest sports in the world dating back thousands of years and only our 4th title in 120 years. The celebrations lasted for a fll week and took place across the whole country as we traveled from the final back to home with the team. Good times.
Lol gotta love the Irish I tell you, they stick to their guns when it comes to pubs! Those things are a national treasure the way I see it
I’m pretty sure there’s a good old fire going in a pub isn’t it?
Thanks for sharing the cool memories lol sound epic!

There is in the winter time anyway. Nothing beats walking in the door on a Friday night to feel the warm fire and settle down with your people around it, talking, laughing, taking the piss out of each other and settling in for the evening. It's an institution. Out the countryside there is nothing else there other than sport and pubs.
