    Go to the parade in Dundalk.
    Have dinner afterwards.
    Watch the Club football final.
    Stay out of noisy, brawlish pubs that have children with drunken adults all day long.

    I shall be doing the same thing I do every year; Not partaking in any festivities.

    Paddy founded the catholic church in Ireland, and we all know how that turned out.
    Nothing to celebrate, in my opinion

    Have a wedding the day before, so Paddy's Day will probably roll in as a drunken continuation of the previous days celebrations.

    I love this time of year!!

    The joys of working for a European company mean I'm on duty. Hoping to take in the parade in Bray at some point.

    Never enjoyed Paddy's Day in Ireland. Abroad though (New York for example) and it's immense!

    Working a 13 hour but It still beats standing in the freezing cold watching the army parade their rust buckets down the street and listening to the kids saying "when we going home daddy. Probably have few beers when I get home.
