Russels to close down

billy the squid

the Alive in Limeirck blog is reporting that russels has lost its licence. personally i prefered the Unicorn, but then that is what you get when you annoy your neighbours

you just can't have a bar like that in a residential area anyway.

I heard from people who live nearby that apperantly the licence is up for renewal but the judge has temperily suspended their application until a number of conditions have been met. These conditions apparently include taking down the smoking area in the front and extra sound proofing of the premises. Apperantly this is not the first time the owner has clashed with the judge who issues licences either.

You are right though the owner has really burnt his bridges with the local neighbours over the years and now it is coming back to haunt him.

He could be going to jail anyway if the
dpp gets what it wants.

Judging by what he did to that poor Nigerian man and from what the locals around say, the owner is not a very nice man

I have only been in Russell's a few times but after reading this, i'll never set foot inside the place again if it stays under the current ownership.
