Mass life looking back is a happy memory. Getting dragged up to go to mass was always a killer but when you were there and sitting in your mates making faces at each other and trying to hold in laugh and getting shushed by the adults was quite fun in hindsight

Remember me and the lads started going Saturday evening mass instead to avoid the Sunday evening which then progressed to we would leave right after we got the bread which was frowned upon by the community and the. eventually we would just tell the mothers we went on the Saturday but skipped it and the mother would be trying to find out off neighbours if I went and then her disappointment when she found out I had skipped it LOL

Go to the church grab the mass leaflet, off to play in the fields. 
It would damage this forums' reputation

I remember when I was playing U9 or U10 football that we had a pre season friendly organised for a Sunday morning. There were 3 masses in our local church on a Sunday morning, 10, 11 & 12 o’clock. Because we wouldn’t be at mass on the Sunday, the entire team went to mass on Saturday evening instead. Laughable thinking back about it.

Every Sunday fighting with the mother about going to mass.

Looking back, I'm happy I wasn't one of those children forced to play outside a pub.

I was still being dragged to mass in my teens. I remember when I started drinking about 16/17 we'd end up going to the 7pm mass Saturday so you didn't have to go hungover.

Yeah mass had to be attended on a Sunday in our house. Had to put on our best clothes. It’s some laugh looking back.

Then in the teens we used to go on Sat with our mates but were always asked “who said mass and who was there”.

Even when I went to Uni I was asked if I was going to mass on a Sunday! 
Haven’t been for years so going to hell now.

Getting a day of school for a Holy day Thumbs Up. Having to give up time on said day off/Holy day for mass Thumbs Down.

Easily amused, but that's a fantastic contradiction
