Happy St Patrick's Day....


Happy St Patrick's Day to everyone...........No parade today in Liverpool, but we'll still enjoy ourselves no doubt..........




As is standard, I take the day off work and the next day of course to get over whatever happens today. It normally starts with a big breakfast/lunch followed by a tour of Liverpool's city centre pubs. Ironically, I tend to stay clear of the Irish pubs as there's normally queues to get in in the first place, queues to get served and the queue is made worse as people start to double up on rounds, and that leads to more queues. Yes, it is very much cicular!!! Also, they are too full and last year a friend went outside to have a cigarette and the bouncers wouldnt let him back in, because it was too full!!!!

There will literally be thousands of people out to celebrate today even though it is a Tuesday and the sooner the economic and political leaders of this city catch on to this and recognise St Patrick's Day something akin to the Beatles festival with the potential to bring in huge revenues to the city over a period of 2/3 days, the better. Perhaps I should write them a letter........

So its Ireland Soccer, rugby and GAA county shirts as fitting attire for today. So it will be easy to spot us........I mean literally so easy to spot. So greetings to eveyone out today and remember, while your sinking your 15th pint of guinness.........there is no tomorrow.............................................................
