The doom and gloom in the financial world shows no signs of being alieviated soon,
and this week an Achill Island pub only contributed to the phenominum of overstating
the profits.
The pub, which can not be mentioned because of legal reasons, is alleged to have
overstated its profits by up to €10 a week. The scandal has gone as far to disgruntal
some of the local customers. "I think is a disgrace!", screamed Cichael Moe Jalvey. "They
said that they had put money aside for buying new boxes of crisps (and I'm a man who
likes my crisps....mmmm, crisps, arrgggghh), when all the while the staff were helping
themselves to free peanuts on the money".
"I should have known it really", he continued, "because they were always going around
munching on something, and those crisps never did arrive. I was really disappointed you know.
They promised us all the flavours under the sun and it's just not fair".
