No prizes for guessing

I would rather go to Outer Mongolia

I’d rather go to Outer Mongolia than visit Co Tipperary, says councillor

During the late '70 and early '80s, a group of us ran the Dead Sheep Rally on a site deep in Glendun. One of the drinking spots and accommodation, for the softies, was the erratically opening Cushendun Bay Hotel ran by Randall McDonnell.
Very late one Saturday night, one of our English visitors asked him "What time does the bar close?" Randall rolled his lips, surveyed the hundred plus drunken bikers in the bar, searched the ceiling for a new crack in the plaster, studied him, as a Roswell scientist would have peered at the alien and replied "At what time would you be thinking of leaving?" before turning on his heel.
A true eccentric who occasionally asked potential co-habiting couples for a marriage certificate.
 
The Dead Sheep was a great wee rally with a unique badge. :)

Randall was some boy alright and many's the night we spent in his bar with the big Aidan and the lads from the Border Lords. Happy days Michael. :thumb2
