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

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

The archive has 35 readable signals for Paddy'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: 4 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 35 unique Boards.ie URLs for review. The dated archive span visible on the page is 2001-2011.

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