    So here we are again, one week from St. Patrick's Day. How will you celebrate this year? If your abroad, will this mean more to you now?

    I'm up a session any day but is that all Paddy's day means to people? A day to go on the piss? (having said that I'll be on the piss that day)

    Working til 9, then out on the p!ss. Might run into a boardsie too, we shall see! Either way, getting hammered is the main goal of the night. :D

    Another excuse for people to get hammered. Great.

    Not doing a thing for it.

    This thread is just going to end with drink and more drink. not about getting rid of thouse snakes and i dont think any of us will be minding our pot of gold, just spending it as we follow the rain bow to any pub which will take us

    There's nothing else to do on Paddys day besides drink.

    Though I happen to be going to the dogs also

    Dont normally celebrate St.Patricks day, however as this is to be our last National day held in March I might make an attempt to go out and have fun.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,638 ✭✭✭Teyla Emmagan


    Will be doing nothing for it, just like every other year.

    Thankfully its a saturday this year, no work till tuesday!

    baggot street pub crawl for me, with ireland v england in the six nations on too.

    I'm abroad again this year. Will probably be a bit homesick, always spent the day with my family and had a family dinner. My mam posted me some funny stuff to wear :)

    Going to a party on Friday, pubs downtown Saturday, maybe try find some people for a cure Sunday....

    My aim is to be drunk for the weekend but not pay for a single drink. I'm Irish, its my right! :pac:

    I'm going to an Irish pub in a Czech town ironically called The Immigrant, and I plan on get rat arsed and look like an eejit by wearing a guinness leprechaun hat and maybe Orla will paint my nails green(again).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,373 ✭✭✭pconn062


    My absolute least favourite holiday of the year, I despise it. Just an excuse for binge drinking, violence and vandalism.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    Can't stand Paddy's day - too packed and messy. I'll go out either the night before or the Sunday night.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,583 ✭✭✭ronan45


    any decent old style owlfella pubs to go on a booze cruise on maxi paddys day?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,402 ✭✭✭nxbyveromdwjpg


    I'm up a session any day but is that all Paddy's day means to people?

    Yes, obviously. What the hell else would it mean, something to do with snakes??

    It's about getting ****faced - that, tourism and finally chucking the crusties off Dame St.

    sounds like a plan


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 882 ✭✭✭darragh16


    Well I won't be destroying my own city like thousands will this year...

    What does that mean? Plans to change date?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,163 ✭✭✭✭danniemcq

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    I'm going to see Leprechaun on the 16th, that's as close as I'll ever get to celebrating Paddy's day. Leave it for the teenagers and tourists.

    hate it, usually just go for a drive for the day, pain in the hole with so many garda checkpoints though

    Sleep, run, watch rugby. Pretty normal Saturday, tbh.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,663 ✭✭✭Immaculate Pasta


    Going to the pub for 9 for an Irish breakfast and a Guinness and then I don't intend on leaving for the next 18 hours or so :cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,802 ✭✭✭beks101


    I'll be in Montreal hamming up my accent and wearing a 'Kiss me, I'm Irish' t-shirt.
