Anyone planning on rocking those red socks this Bank Holiday weekend?
Now that we’re heading into the colder nights, we could all do with a bit of extra colour in our lives. If that colour comes in the form of a pair of bright red socks, all the better.
Plus, putting them on this weekend could earn you one free pint of Smithwick’s Red Ale. All you have to do is turn up to one of the participating pubs, and you’ll be rewarded with a cool pint of the good stuff.
It’s taking place in pubs all across Ireland from Thursday, 24 – Sunday, 27 October between 6-8pm, with pubs in the Dublin 2 area running it from Thursday to Saturday.
That gives you plenty of time to pop down to a shop to grab a pair of red socks. Unless you’re already ahead of the game and have a gorgeous pair sitting at home.
We’re calling them gorgeous because all red socks are, by default, things of beauty. Here is the full list of pubs taking part:
