Happy St Patricks Day!
 
this day used to be about the Guinness for me...

now it's about the trials and tribulations that my and so many other people's ancestors had, crossing the globe in search of a new & better life for themselves and their children, and their children's children...

Happy St Patricks Day everybody :)

Happy Paddy’s day.

I heard St Patric was Welsh.
Just a bit of trivia.

Guinness £5 per pint ( hope I can use the product placement)
Going to save £100 tody by not drinking it.

‘Drink Guinness it’s good for you ‘ yeah right!

Have a good day.:tyou

WOW Dee - The Kilkelly video was great, though rather sad. Thanks. Happy St. Patrick's Day.

Happy Sober St. Patricks day, SR friends who are celebrating.

Since (as I see it) it's all about green color, it can be symbol of new beginnings and new sober adventures in life. It's so much more fun than Guinness.

Here's some celtic tunes for sobriety fighters.

Couldn't resist)

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day! I’ll spend it wearing green, doing house chores, and very sober :)

A little whispering from the AV today but it's pretty quiet....think I'll stay home and close to SR :grouphug:

Happy St. Patrick's Day everybody! :tyou

I'm going to beg my way out of work today, ideally I succeed. It's amature night at the bar and I don't want to be exposed to it.

I have a really hard time at the bar on these kind of days.

Midnight Blue, LOVE that song you posted from Doug Blair!

Here's another contribution of Celtic music, "Seal Woman/Yundah" from Mary McLaughlin. Haunting music and art combined in the video:

Ireland is soo much more than Guinness . . . was checking out this video this afternoon . . .

Many years ago . . . River Dance put Ireland on the Entertainment map . . . it's still epic . . .

Happy St. Patrick's Day, everyone!

Thanks for the great music, Dee.

Thanks everyone for the reminder of what this day is really about - first sober St. Patrick's Day for me in many years and was struggling a bit. *salute*

Ditto, Mr. Dee (although it's probably 18 March where you are right about now ;))

I'm wearing my green but not drinking anything that will make my skin turn that color :D

Happy St. Patty's Day all...

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone! May the luck of the Irish be with you all!

Dee, thanks for the video.

Purplrks3647 03-17-2018 04:49 PM

Cool video Purple Knight! Thanks for sharing :)

I've only had a couple sober St Patrick's Days in the past, but what helped was having to be up early for work the next day. So this is my first sober one with tomorrow off! Thanks again everyone! :c017:

Hevyn 03-17-2018 06:17 PM

Dee! I almost missed it...been having computer issues today. It's a three hankie experience, for sure - but I love it. :hug:

Loving all the other good stuff posted here too. :grouphug:

Crimki 03-17-2018 08:47 PM

Happy sober St Patrick's
 
Happy sober St. Patrick's day. Day 76 here.

So good, Dee!

I play this song on the guitar. Pretty well if I don’t say so myself.

This was the first St Patrick’s Day I got to say I’m Irish, after finding out on Mar 20 of last year that I have an Irish biological father, and that the man I always knew of as my father is in fact not biologically so. All those years of being told I look so Irish, and I am! Lol.

Got to say I still don’t feel anything for the day, persay, but I caught a spring training baseball game in Florida and wore a shamrock necklace someone put on my neck and had fun, happy to be sober. Thought about all of the stories I don’t know and do know that took place to guarantee my existence, and the stories I’m making to guarantee future existence, sitting on the beach, watching the sun set.

You know, light stuff. 😂🤓 ☘️

Nice to have a few days off of work.

I should have played that song, yesterday. Didn’t think of it.

Thanks for the reminder.
