    Planning on pouring nuclear waste into the River Liffey so St.Patricks Day can be more than just one day in the year.

    I would have thought a lot heading out the Monday night instead with
    being back in work the Wednesday.

    Nothing to celebrate, in my opinion

    No, that would be Christianity. Both sides up North love him. They think more of an Ulsterman than an Irishman, since that's where he first landed.

    Stay as far away from any drunken man ,woman or child as I can ,
    Stay as far away from the mess that is the city centre,
    Stay as far away from the zombie zone that the pubs become,

    Nice quiet day at home when wife and kids f**k off to parade.
    Reunite with TV Remote ,
    NO Micky Mouse Clubhouse, :D
    NO Henry Hugglemonster, :D
    NO Curious George , :D

    Sport channels how I miss you ,might even watch Eurosport .

    Cabbage and Bacon dinner about the only Irish thing I'll be near.

    I'm a low ranking county councillor. So free holiday in the Seychelles to attend their parade, followed by talks with local dignatries to attract jobs, and a quick tour of their world famous, state of the art sewage treatment facilities and then drink and eat like a king.
    With the wife.

    Gardening. Plant seed potatoes, cut grass.
    Bacon and cabbage for dinner followed by green and orange jelly with white ice cream between.
    Wear green necklace and earrings.
    I like the day, spring officially launched.

    I enjoy it more from abroad than I do at home usually. But agree its the real start of spring.

    Last year I watched local team in the club final over the internet ( Hurling NOT Curling!). The year before the sky here went green with an amazing display of northern lights. Its a good day :)

    Another boring and uneventful St Paddy's day here in Waterford. A parade filled with GAA Clubs and Garden centre advertisements. No wonder people go on the piss afterwards.

    I'm working two parades that day. So afterwards it will be the couch, telly and a take away.

    Possibly will also need to soak my feet after 9 or 10 hours on them.

    Never had a good St. Patricius Day. Either boring parades or drunks fighting it out to the backdrop of 28 Days Later.

    Probably out tomorrow instead.
