St Patricks day was actually celebrated yesterday or saturday so that it would not fall in Holy Week.....It will not happen again for about fifty years....So it's a bit of history in your lifetime....will we see the next one I wonder..... I am actually happy the Vatican moved St Patricks this year, it means I can celebrate it Three times...It's been a good weekend and guess what?...I have had no urge to assault anyone, vandalise property or even sing loudly at two o'clock in the morning despite having indulged in the consumption of a large helping of alcohol....Am I normal?
Ken, I share your half Irish heritage, so plan on getting only half pissed for St Patricks. Well, I lied about that one.
Plenty of well above Nanny's average 'units' of the Liffey water will be consumed today and tonight as I wish all the best to the auld sod and sod all to nanny and her mineral water sipping minions.
I see from a trawl through the adverts on your site that one of them is offering free Champagne, while another is offering wine at 2.67 per bottle.
Ken, as a responsible citizen, fully aware of the government's thinking on matters alcoholic, can you, in all conscience, allow this to continue? Do you feel no moral obligation to defend your innocent bloggers from exposure to this sort of temptation?
I feel that some action needs to be taken (as soon as you sober up, of course).
In order to do my bit for society by keeping the kiddies off the Carly Spesh and White Lightning I have stopped buying cheap lager at tesco and now buy the expensive stuff instead. Last night I attended the weekly Buffs meeting and we all got steadily wankered as the evening progressed (fragmented would be closer the mark)
Back to work this a.m. unfortunately, but just to cheer myself up I stood and listened to the five gallons of ale bubbling gently as it ferments in the kitchen. I can do that now mein Fuehrer has scarpered off to the Med for the summer :o) Three weeks to make, one week to sup, I'd better get a bigger brewing tub. There is no sweeter sound to the ear than than all those little busy yeasty beasties converting sugar into alcohol!
Ken et al:
ReplyDeleteHappy St Pats day to you too sir.

Funny, that doesn't look much like Ireland in the background. Are you sure you're half Irish?
ReplyDeleteMuch better!
