    In our area it seemed to be swiftly followed by the Aussie trend, 2 of my locals briefly went Oz, both are now unthemed.

    But, as we both know, the damage has often been done.

    The Castle Vaults in Shrewsbury was turned into an Irish bar with great timing , within a month of opening the IRA bombed Shrewsbury Castle , a 100 yards from the pub , strangley it never took off , especially as around a 100 Shrewsbury Hooligans were involved in the Dublin riots
