The ejection of Herr Flick from the Oak


Recently I had the great pleasure to witness the ejection of a former Tanaiste and ex-leader of a certain political party from the Oak Bar. Why? Well Herr Flick thought that he was exempt from the smoking ban and felt that he could stand inside the door of our drinking emporium with a pint of plain in one hand and a smoking cigarillo in the other.

Much to the amusement of the staff and other patrons, Herr Flick was informed by a well mannered non-national doorman that there was a ban on smoking inside public buildings and that included public bars. Offended and outraged Herr Flick paused for a moment before deciding to comply and step outside; however when he did and much to his confusion he was asked to please step back inside and plonk his pint down.
At this point one of Herr Flicks henchmen and obviously a member of the PD Gestapo goose stepped across the room and started to yap at the heels of the burly doorman, demanding to know the doorman’s name and where he came from. To a big ‘Oooo’ and the odd 'racist' comment from the surrounding patrons, Her Flick quickly called his Jack Russell to heel and commanded him to sit and stop snarling.
