The challenge is how many Guiness hats can you get? (if the pubs still do that? used to get a hat every 4 pints of the black stuff) my record is 3, hit the spirits after that.

Happy leprechaun day people.

What are the odds of getting an English barman that can pour a proper pint? I've tried and failed many times :p

I refuse to drink on this day incase anyone mistakes me for giving a **** about the day.

As much as I like the dave prestons of this world and my wife is half potato picker, I do agree with you.

By all means celebrate it in Ireland, but not sure why we should over here ;)

Some of us do do a cracking St George's Day, including beer, roast beef, wine, port, more beer, Land of Hope and Glory, Jerusalem etc and more beer.

been and had my Guinness at tea time. Now looking forward to George's Day next month.

Happy St. Patrick's Day !!! from the land of plastic paddies.

Tis' widely celebrated here.
In fact more americans claim to be Irish on St. Paddy's Day than there are people in Ireland. :rolleyes:

Even I wore a green shirt today and my friend from N. I. brought me some lovely pastries she made today in honour of.
