One needs to remember that DocChuck goes to great lengths to portray himself as wealthy, educated, well-travelled, respected, and loved…..mostly because he is none of these things. It is much like someone actually saying …”and I know what I am talking about”….ie anyone who feels the need to add that bit to a statement — as a rule — does *not* know what they are talking about.

Twisted minds like DocChuck’s love the web because with the virtual anonimity, you can pretend to be anyone. And he does.

I think the attacks on all things NY-related is his way of getting extra attention, ie negative attention being in his mind better than no attention at all.

Yes, the Manchester Pub does so remind me of the King Laoghaire on Georges Street Upper (close to our clinic in Dubin). Photos of the KL are available on our website (to our ‘Friends’), of course, along with hundreds of other photos of our other UK adventures (to the plebes).

And your post does refresh my pleasant memories of our evenings spent there. We will, of course, be returning to Dublin in early December (a tax write-off expense, you understand), and I am all fired-up about enjoying some bangers and mash, along with a pint or two.

Thanks for reminding me (and my wife, Doctor Elizabeth) of our wonderful visits to the UK.

It is indeed unfortunate that some folks posting on your wonderful website are so disturbed by the lack of similar experiences in their lonely lives.

Oh, well.

By favorite pubs in Dublin, DocChuck means the pubs he reads about on Dublin-based food blogs that he ALSO infests with his presence

By business trips, DocChuck means the annual christmas party for the prison workers at the maximum security prison where his wife Hogzilla works as a guard.

Now that was one fine post about what seems to be one fine establishment.

That joint reminds me of some of my favorite pubs in Dublin (i.e., ‘cheap’, ’smelling the loo from the bar’, the big-breasted bar lassies, etc.).

Manchester is definitely on my list the next time my wife drags me, fighting and screaming, to the BA on one of her dreaded business trips.
