Good Friday is a very solemn day. It is traditional for Catholics not to eat meat on Good Friday. They will not eat a lot and amongst what they might eat as a tradition are hot cross buns. There are usually religious services starting at 3pm, and some other ones starting later. The story of Christ's Passion and Crucifixion feature in these services. In the Republic of Ireland the pubs are all closed. Christmas Day is the only other day that this happens. Bars in hotels are open to residents, but most places selling alcohol are closed. It means there is a lot less night life on Good Friday. A Friday is normally a very busy social night, so some people will buy drink on the days beforehand and drink at home instead of going to a pub.
