Just wondering what those of us who don't drink will do for the national holiday.

Ive only ever been to the pub i think twice on Paddy's day much rather gettin out and about. Especially since its a beautiful day out. I would normally go for a hike or a run on the beach alsa today though Im stuck in studying!!!

Red Alert

I'm hung over from a wedding... so essentially I'm having a sober paddy's day.

Was supposed to go Croke Park, but now have to work. Will be finished early, but won't bother drinking after that. Not spending a penny today!

I bet half of my friends will be drinking, but I won't. At 17, I don't need to drink to have fun!

Max Power1

I'll be having a sober paddy's day - im off drink for lent!

Will be going to see a metallica tribute band gig tonight, after the parade of course :rolleyes:

ergonomics

Yep I am. Loads of college work to get done so I can't. I don't really care though.

cherryghost

Sure would it be a sin not to wet the shamrock on our national drinking day :P

Smegball

Nope

No.......AH gettin soft

Riamfada

Not a big fan of drinking on Paddy's Day. The weather is fantastic so Im going to go for a healthy walk with the camera up the hills after I visit my gran. Will be seeing mates for some Soberness later ! Life is good

I never have a desire to drink on Paddy's day, have worked it for too many years and seen the bad side of it. Staying clear of town altogether to be honest. May have a beer while watching the Simpsons tonight but that'll be the extent of it if I do.

Dartz

Food poisoning from chicken yesterday.

So yes.

banshee_bones

Yep, not interested in drinking today, as iv said before its just like stephens and NYE, way overhyped, everywhere is jammed, no comfort in any pub. Alot of potential for muppetry going on... Going to watch the parade and then go have lunch, after then not sure! Might walk the prom!?

Ruu_Old

MagicMarker

Who the fúck needs alcohol when they can spend all day lying on their bed, listening to music and watching movies?

AckwelFoley

i rarely get drunk anymore.

Its soooo passé

kowloon

I have an Essay to do, extremely pi55ed off about it, as I'd likely be on the receiving end of many a drink as one of the few genuine Irish people in town.

Frank Spencer

Anyone else have the ad with two bottles of Heineken sliding across the screen showing at the bottom of this thread?

I wasn't going to drink but now I'm not so sure............

Snowie

Hazys

After the hangover to end all hangovers a few years back I make it a point to stay sober on patricks day

I don't really like Paddy's day.

Damn sobriety...
