Finn's Bar: Boards.ie memory worth building out

Boards.ie gives Finn's Bar a useful forum-memory trail around stories and gossip, old memories, nights out and craic and characters and regulars. PubHub is treating it as linked public memory, not settled fact.

The archive has 18 readable signals for Finn's Bar, with enough repetition to make this a good candidate for a fuller memory page. The useful material is the pattern: what people returned to, joked about, remembered, or argued over.

The character lane is active here: 1 signals point toward regulars, staff-memory, crowds, roles, and room texture. PubHub should keep private people protected while preserving the sense of the room.

The source trail currently preserves 18 unique Boards.ie URLs for review. The dated archive span visible on the page is 2003-2019.

Generated V1 flagship draft. Before turning this into stronger editorial copy, open the linked sources, check pub identity, and keep corrections/removals easy.
