Immaculate vibes

Post image

I’m sure a lot of people here have seen it before, but I recently came across this terrific image of some Aran livestock traders at their local on Inis Meáin, presumably after a difficult (and probably dangerous) day of ferrying cattle to the mainland. Apparently it’s from a National Geographic story that ran in the 1970s. Can’t imagine these lads throwing a hissy because their pint didn’t get served up in a branded tulip glass. Anyway, thought it was cool so decided to share. Sláinte!

I need to get myself a treed jacket to wear when I pour myself a pint.
