A creamy pint… and a pizza crust chaser

-

PUB-GOERS are not happy with the obligatory €9 food order, myself included. In one hostelry last week, I ordered a pint of the creamy stuff.

Minutes later it arrived… served with a pizza box. Opening the box, I found three leftover crusts still inside. My puzzled face caught the attention of the waitress.

“It’s in case the Covid cops come in,” she whispered. I looked around the pub to see similar boxes on most tables. Talk about your ‘Irish solution to an Irish problem’.
