St Patrick's Day

kfallon

Are you a fan?

Anyone got special plans for the day other than getting gee-eyed drunk and losing your bollix on the nags at Cheltenham

Personally I love it, can't beat a load of lads in the pub having the 'craic'

So thats what a day off is like!

Minstrel27

I am looking forward to working for it. I wont be found anywhere near a pub on St Patricks Day. There is always far too many heroes that cannot handle their drink.

maximoose

I enjoy it outside of Dublin.

Too many damn tourists... Yes, i'm looking at you Spain.

Was never really ar*ed with it before, but this year is going to be different. I'm going to NY! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Don't worry lads, I'll drink yee all proud!

(may end up on the news.............hmm.)

I'm off drink for lent...

... the one rule we always had when I was younger was that paddy's day was an exception for lent stuff.

So I shall be painting the town red green and getting buckled.

I hate getting messy drunk these days. I prefer to enjoy the night at the time rather than have it relayed by others the next day as I laugh/cringe/cry at the group's post-mortem dissection of the preceding evening's festivities.

Paddy's Day is the exception, and I take great pleasure in knacker drinking at 11am, going on a 7-mile pub crawl and getting refused from half the establishments by early-to-mid afternoon before waking up with my head in a pitcher in some pub in the city centre with no recollection of how I got there, and generally doing my civic duty to act the bollox on our nation's annual day of shame.

This year, however, I'll be out clubbing on Paddy's Eve so I'm going to be very tender and asocial come the day. Avoiding people and pubs in the standard procedure in such circumstances and I'm not sure if it'll be any different on this occasion.

Its my nephew/godchilds birthday so i love it. Go to his party and fill up on junk then off to the pub for a few

Nodster

jeez, don't slate me for being a killjoy, but I had the best Paddy's last year in San Francisco - most folks made an effort to join in the celebrations without the drunken mayhem that inevitablty happens back homeI'll nip out for some of the local parades round Nth Dublin and sup a few sherberts at home later that evening

I'll be decked out in green, heading over to my mates house at midday for our traditional full Irish breakfast and then we head over to our favourite beer garden which is a bit out from town so not empty but not manic like most places on Paddys day where we'll chill out for the afternoon with a few drinks. Usually go for a wander into town later but I don't like that part so much.

enjoy it, i was there for it a few years ago. went to see john duddy fighting some fella in madison square garden the night before. the other lad was nicknamed showtime. did a few somersaults in the ring after the walk in. duddy knocked him out in about 13 seconds.
the parade is hijacked by the 'brits out' brigade though. full of shams that haven't been back in ireland for years.
great few nights though.

seanmc1980

i'll be playing druids glen in the morning, might wear a green jumper to mark the occasion. prob won't bother going drinking during the day i'm getting too old and impatient for that!! lol,

i'll head for a few that night but somewhere off the beaten track. i can't think of nothing worse than a pub full of 18-25 year olds downing pints and falling all over the place!!
(manybe i'm jealous)

Misty Chaos

Not sure what I'll do yet, might go out the night before or actually leave the drinking until the day itself this year and be socailable for once. :pac:

Might head to the city for the day, I'll see.

Sanjuro

Paddy's Day/Arthur's Day/Friday... Irish people will turn anything into a drinking day.

Not that that's necessarily a bad thing...

Notorious97

My favourite day of the year, im working it this year but i don’t mind, im always in good form that day, il have a few pints later that night though, i know people moan about the Parade in Dublin but i love it :pac:

I'll have a few, wouldn't be into getting rat-arsed. But Cheltenham is what it's about for me and the Daddy

df1985

Ill be in tenerife for it drinking with a load of english and scots! Ive always liked Paddys day, whether what goes on in pubs in dublin etc is right or wrong, at the end of the day this tiny little country is celebrated all over the world from japan to argentina...no other country that i know of has a day celebrated worldwide like it-something to be proud of.

I love Paddy's Day. Roll out of the bed, shower and shower can, dressed, dirty fry-up, pub and bookies.

Im going to be working on Saint Patricks day.

I do have the option of booking it off but I regard any one day public holiday which doesnt fall on a Monday or a Friday as a complete waste.

El Weirdo

Not a fan of Paddy's day. It's like Amateur's day in all the pubs. Wouldn't see half of the fuckers in there normally. Nearly as bad as New Year's Eve.

Killer Pigeon

In a bid to end all nationalistic pride the IMF/EU have cancelled the St. Patrick's Day parade in Dublin.

tishiewishie
