Seconded -- Not 'politically correct' nowadays in case we cause offence to all the other ethnic groups that cohabit in our green & pleasant land, but who cares. I still celebrate it every year.

Greetings all.

Enjoy the day. I did post you all a St Patrick's Day greeting back in March, but I put it in the wrong forum and it ended up in the 'junk bin' which really annoyed me!!!

There's too much PC stuff around these days. This is part of your history, cerebrate it with pride. However, don't expect to turn on the Christmas Lights this year, I hear they have to be Celebrity Lights instead - how pathetic is that?

Cheers

I am proud to celebrate it every year, its a shame that there is not more made of our patron saints day like in the pride of the Scots, Welsh and Irish, who mark the day each year wherever they are in the world.
