A 12 Pubs of Christmas crew raised an unreal amount of money for their local cancer support group

Carl Kinsella

A wonderful twist on the 12 Pubs.

The 12 Pubs of Christmas trail is often made more treacherous by rules that the drinkers can’t break without incurring some kind of penalty (usually in the form of a shot).

But instead of doing ‘drinking forfeits’, Dean O’Raghallaigh and his mates had a much better idea. For every time he or one of his friends broke the rules, they had to make a donation to the local cancer support group in Shercock, Co. Cavan.

Let’s just say there must have been an awful lot of rules broken that night, because the gang managed to raise a whopping €545 for cancer support.

You have to tip your Santa-hat to that kind of generosity. Well done lads.

Cheers to Dean O’Raghallaigh for sending this one our way. If you’ve done anything special this Christmas, let us know on Facebook or at [email protected].
