Patrick came from Scotland, in fact its thought he probably came from my little hometown! I can see the castle from where he left for Ireland out my window!

Happy St. Patricks day everyone.

Most sources indicate that Patrick was Welsh - which rather complicates the appeals to Divine intervention for Saturday's showdown.

However, the historical documentary that is "Braveheart" clearly shows that Scotland owes her independence entirely to an Irishman.

Ah, I wasn't sure of his place of birth (I've heard everything from Dumbarton and Kilpatrick in Scotland, to Wales, Cornwall, Brittany etc), however he did definetely end up at Dumbarton Castle didn't he? Otherwise my claim to fame for today is blown out of the water.

Heh, I heard a hilarious discussion going on between some drunk folks with their Guiness hats on when I was coming back on the train from the footy, they had the carriage in an uproar!
