Barrytown was an over night stop over on the way to Franz josef. We basically thought we would just be going straight to bed, get our rest & head off. But NO!
All there is in Barrytown is about 5 houses & a pub (which the hostel is attached to). On arrival we all recieved a roast chicken dinner, which was a treat to as most of us had been eating loads of junk food.
We all decided to go for a drink in the bar. The landlord told us it was happy hour all night, but only if we were dressed in fancy dress! So, as you can imagine, the chance to get cheaper drinks made us all delve deep into the fancy dress clothes (which they supplied).
It was really funny watching everybody getting excited whilst getting dressed up, especially the lads when they were putting womens dresses on. Haha!
The landlord had a game to play. It was called the peg game. He walked around the bar really sly & attached the peg to one of us without us realising, he would then shout out "who's got the peg" & whoever had it on them had to down there drink! Then they would keep the peg & attach it to someone else! So on & so on! Noodles the Canadian took 3 attempts to down his pint! We all took the piss. He couldn't get over the fact that we all downed ours in 1. Edgy, the lad from Sheffield got pegged 3 times in a row! Haha!
We came across a new drink called Jager bombs. Its a redbull with a shot of Jagermeister, still in the shot glass, dropped in it. But we were taking it 1 step further! A vodka redbull with the shot of Jagermeister dropped in it!
It all got a bit messy! We all knocked it on the head around 5am ish!
A good time had by all!
