…they call their St. Patrick’s Day celebration a “Hooly”.
Excellent – have good safe fun, and I hope you enjoy it, Patrick.
I plan to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with my wife, family and friends at a local pub here in Michigan. Traditional Irish music, sing alongs, and food. I might even give some Irish Gaelic a go (Thanks for the audio tips in your latest post Eoin!). Staying clear of the big crowds of green-beer drinking clowns.
My wife and I travel to Dublin (Ohio) to be in the parade with our Irish Wolfhounds Maeve, Grace and Clare.
Wow, must be an interesting time. They’re a lovely breed of dog.
Hopefully I will marching in our St. Patrick’s Day Parade, wearing my green plaid Kilt, here in Granbury, Texas
Good man!
Every city in the world seems to be celebrating St. Paddy’s Day nowadays!. Great stuff.!. I can feel the Spring in the air already. The long dark winter is behind us the days are getting brighter and the sunny days are in front of us. It is a gay and colourful parade with all the green and gold and all the craic and shamrock. Every one enjoying themselves. I hope they get good weather in Ireland this year. Thank you Stephanie for the Irish breakfast info. I am looking forward to that myself this St. Patrick’s Day.! Happy St. Patrick’s Day to everyone. Pádraig
Agreed, a Phádraig. It’s lovely having that bit of extra warmth in the springtime.
For our members, have a look at Bitesize Lesson: “Seasons and months” for a spring audio recording:

Will be joining the St. Patrick’s day parade (and what shenaningans may follow that) in Copenhagen where I live, with a bunch of Irish and Danish friends. Should be fun – was last year anyway, even if it was freezing cold, litteraly, hopefully spring will be here this year!
Hi Mette. Interesting to hear from Denmark. Hope you enjoy it.
