T minus 6 Irish blessings

There are many good reasons for drinking,
One has just entered my head.
If a man doesn't drink when he's living,
How in the hell can he drink when he's dead?

- Irish saying -


In the above image I photographed Sean's Bar without knowing the stories behind its history. If I knew better about it probably the telegraph pole wouldn't be right in front of it. The information related to this pub says it is the oldest in Ireland, other stories say the opposite. I don't want to debate about this, I just loved the look and the atmosphere on this street in the town of Athlone, on the Shannon River.
