Happy St Patrick's Day!

Just wanted to wish all my fellow boarders a Happy St Patrick's Day! (No relation by the way...cough! cough!). My Dredd Paddy's Day T-shirt is ready and waiting to be donned for this special occassion, so all that remains is to get to the off-license to stock up on some cans and bottles for the day. Forget about the recession etc. In times of crisis, the only solution is to get blissfully, maggoty drunk. (I should know: it works for me!)

Cheers to y'all!

P.S. The Management accept no responsibility for any offence caused by the blatant perpetuation of insulting racial stereotypes. And I'm only saying that now because I'll be in no condition to pronounce, never mind repeat it tomorrow!

Same to you! These Scotch people won't give me the day off...

It's going to be Irish night in the Rowdy Yates Yap Shop tonight - whether they want it or not! That means Irish-themed jokes, music and all conversations to be held as Gaeilge. Plastic Paddies also welcome!

I shall also be imbibing some Lech beer (it's sort've patriotic, I guess) to help maintain the positive vibes. Hooray for Ireland!

Well, I'll be working both tonight and tomorrow night, so it's not going to be much of a Paddy's day for me.

Jared Katooie · 16 March, 2011, 06:24:52 PM

Well, it's St. Patricks Festival now. So you can still celebrate Friday or on the weekend...

Or next week... or...

Gavin_Leahy_Block · 16 March, 2011, 06:35:58 PM

Still dose not result in me getting a day off.

Jared Katooie · 16 March, 2011, 07:10:24 PM

Well in that case, a bomb scare is the way to go.

An anthrax scare is even better. All you need is some talcum powder and an envelope.

St. Patrick wouldn't have given up!

Happy St.Patrick's Day to all Irish boarders everywhere!

Happy St Patricks day y'all!

Off out for my first sea-swim of the year ('cos I'm a wimp), then down to the Wicklow parade (when the best float is a truck from the local recycling centre, you know you've found the true spirit of Paddy's Day). Currently choking down green pancakes for breakfast, and then as David says, I will give my traditional lecture to the kids on the Irish slave trade, the decline of the Romano-British world and the 10,000 petty kings of Ireland. I might spice things up with a serpents-represent-coiling-Earthpower this year, in honour of the Gaffer.

I'm on a course tomorrow morning and have celebrated by ticking the 'Irish' box on the form (and took delight in the fact that there's no 'Welsh' or 'English' option).

Never let it be said that I do not know how to party.
