Churches were having to put "bouncers" on the doors to stop the people who were merry on the sherry from gaining entry.
Shame really, there is something magical about Midnight Mass.
It used to be a major part of Christmas....................another tradition gone to the wall.
Never mind.

About 15 years or more ago we used to regularly go to the one at the bottom of Grange Road after we'd been round town, used to be a right laugh until they started locking us out.
