SNUGS AND OTHER TRIANGLE PHENOMENA...

-------- Your tax dollars at work ---------

SNUGS..... IF YOU'VE NEVER ENJOYED ONE... YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY KNOW WHAT YOU ARE MISSING!!

For those who've never had the pleasure..... a "SNUG" is a small rectangular room, slightly smaller than a jail cell, where clients of the Triangle can meet and imbibe without being seen by the prying eyes of reporters, competitors, taxpayers and others in the Ale House.

While the snugs do provide privacy from snooping eyes the walls do not go all the way to the ceiling so noise from the patrons and band would still be a factor..... inside a snug!

One of our commenters reports on the use of the Triangle as a favourite watering hole for politicians during the day; however, I saw none there at the hours normally recorded on Mr. Anderson's "receipts". What I saw between 10:00 and 12:00 Thursday night, were mostly 30 something clients and in fact the population changed even more dramatically with many of the male clients leaving and more female 30 somethings arriving. By midnight, some 80 percent of Triangle Ale House patrons were women!

So there..... another attempt to make sure our readers are the best informed taxpayers in South West Nova.

These middle aged males trying to recapture their youth. What does an hour or two rental of a snug cost? The admonition, "Get a room..." was taken here it appears.

"These middle aged males trying to recapture their youth."Sounds like Frank alright.Also rats tend to hide in the dark till their hour of evil comes! Oh heck,what does it matter if you are not paying for it. One has to wonder how many of our elected officials are reading this blog and if they are able to comprehend what guilt by association refers to.........

What's a frugal Scotsman doing throwing those taxdollars down an Irish watering hole? He'd be better served staying out of the bars and spending the time on his family tree.
I see others are also asking how an exbanker could be so fiscally irresponsible. Notice it's not his money he's wasting - just like a true Scot!
