    Anything on in Port on Paddys day? I'm assuming there'll be a parade. Any decent live music going on anywhere?

    Astoundingly underwhelming I always say.

    Should be good weather so might make a day out of it!

    Pity Paddy's Day wasn't Saturday coming - 7 Premiership games, 3 rugby games and a world title fight. Could have been the perfect day :pac:

    Have to say underwhelming doesn't even come close to describing the parade. Fair play to the clubs promoting themselves but unless your under 8 yrs of age the day is a complete farce.

    The french festival (or whatever it's called now) is 10 times better.
