(It is today, isn't it?) To all the Irish and Irish-for-a-day: have fun, kick butt and drink one for Brad, him still being in a no-alcohol zone at this point.
This may be handy, though some bits only to the guys.

Hah, Jaccairn, some of those symptoms sound very familiar, but I'm not saying which ones :cooler: Just about to head out to celebrate ye olde Paddy's Day. Have a good nght everyone who'll be doing something for it.
Happy Paddy's day all. I will be off to celebrate with a root beer (no alcohol for the minors) and will wear my green beads. Yay beads.
Sorry it’s taken me so long to post. I’ve been off for the Long weekend – St. Patrick’s Day! What did I do to celebrate I hear you ask? I went for lunch with couple of friends which was lovely, after that I met some more people and we all went to drink beer and watched Gaelic football on the TV I also made a couple of really poorly judged bets on the horse Racing at Cheltenham (well I suppose at £1 each way I wasn’t exactly going to make a fortune anyway!). All in all I had a great day. My housemate reckons she had an even better day she went on a 19km hike around Downpatrick (a town were St Patrick is supposedly buried) – Also a town where Rinso sometimes reckons he’s from* *Hmmm St. Patrick is fake Irish too!
