    Oh yes! I forgot it was St Patty's Day. Green beer and all that......

    Not much celebration here in Australia but I do remember the Americans were big on it. I secretly think they just love a parade and drink ;)

    Happy Leprechaun Day.

  • And I thought it was the Aussies who loved to party.

    Her in "Amarica", it's time for all the Irish to be serious and partake of their corn beef and cabbage while everyone else pretends to be Irish, may gets a bit rowdy and drinks a lot. :3=)
    Being mixed blood, I can go both ways, but as I drive, shucks, no drink! :3
    Thank you for the video. <3

    I had a beer today, but it wasn't green...hmm, the box was green, though.
    It was good.

    It's "St. PaDDY's day", not 'St. Patty's'.

    Paddy as in the Irish Gaelic Pádraig, not the English misnomer, 'Patrick'. Or even Patricia....

    Most Irish are nicknamed 'Paddy' as most scots are nicknamed 'Jock' most Welshmen "Daffy' and most Englishmen "Idiot".

    Noted! Thanks @federica - although I thought the term "Paddy" for an Irishman was quite offensive?
