IT HAS COME.
I find it amusing that excitement wanes as the day arrives...
I expect five posts in the Backroom drukn thread. MINIMUM.
Didnt get a chance to post yesterday as I was away in Dublin at a match in Croke Park but I can assure everyone the Saint was well drowned. :beam:
As much as i love getting drunk and fighting and enjoying music about getting drunk and fighting, I have some really big issues with celebrating a holiday that is all about how some canonized fellow chased all non catholic people from his sodden isle.
So I just drink to the prosecuted pagans instead.
I didn't know the DUP had members in Chicago.Quote:
