"Happy St. Patrick's Day!"

Just wishing any of you with irish connections a happy St. patrick's Day and don't forget to have a drink (if you're old enough of course :P) in the name of all things Irish today!

La Fheile Padraig shona duit!

It was a mufti day at my school today, so loads of people came in wearing those massive Guinness hats.

BTW, did anyone realise that St Patrick didn't actually accomplish much? All he ever did was convert High King Leary and a not many others- he left it to others to convert Ireland to Christianity.

I dont think anyone really sees him as more than an association with Ireland, and the myth about the driving out the snakes to be honest Der Nazi.

I would say this is just another excuse to drink but it's not as if the Irish care about excuses. HUR HUR! Nah I'm kidding, although "Irishing up" your coffee at 9Am does tell you something about Irish culture.

I'm Irish and I don't drink.
There's a kick in the teeth of your stereotypes, Cubist.

That said, I do believe studies show Ireland to be the biggest consumer of alcohol in Europe.

A tee totalling Irshman? That's like finding the holy grail or catching a unicorn.
