I'm only drinking home brew made with English malt and English hops.

Merry Christmas!

Always have Guinness in the house anyway, but I'll make a point of drinking more of it tonight. So it is.

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

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.

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