    Id say new york would be cool but I hear the parade is a bit boring.

    tom and jerry's in manhattan is the place to be on Paddys Day.

    Been trying to think of somewhere to be for paddys weekend this year, Montserrat would be kinda silly though would like to give it a go.
    Thought maybe Edinburgh, but hard to judge if it'd be a good place for it.

    Bangkok, apparently spending one night there makes a hard man humble.

    Cordoba, Spain. Was good fun last year when we did an all-day pub crawl.

    I was in Buenos Aires for Paddy's Day in 2009 in an Irish bar. The local television crew were there and they asked if any of us Irish spoke Spanish (at the time I could string about two sentences together - I knew the absolute basics of the basics) and completely baloobafied to the max, I volunteered. There's photos of me talking very intensely to the camera gesticulating frantically but I don't remember anything I said. 20 minutes later they found me asleep on the toilet of the Irish pub.

    I'd give someone a kidney if I could get my hands on that footage. Good to know I did my bit to compound the stereotype internationally.

    Funny, I was in BA that Paddy's day too. The girls I was hanging out with went to some area with a few Irish Bars and reported later on that it was just full of absolutely hammered locals and Paddies so I didn't venture over. I like Ireland and being Irish and all but the Paddy's day thing is a bit of a cringefest for me.

    Edinburgh is brilliant craic for Paddy's day! There won't be a parade but there are about 5 Irish bars, all within close walking distance of each other, and the atmosphere is great.

    Paddy Breen's pub in the village of Kilteely in East Limerick, up the road from where I grew up. Best, creamiest pints in the land, bar none. Unfortunately, Paddy's dead and the pub's shut. Ah well... :(

    I'll be on St Kitts - first Patricks Day in years I'm looking forward to
