Question for people who live in ireland?

Question

so wat do u guys do for st patties day?? :)

yay go irish!

Answer 1

Well i usually go to the parade in Dublin city and freeze my nips off.  This year I won't though.  Staying local.  Going to a ballad session in the local pub with friends.  

I just want to comment on those moaney moaners saying things about Americans .... Irish people you should be proud that people across the world are proud to claim their links to Ireland.

Answer 2

nothing much. get the day off work and go to the pub for a drink

Answer 3

Just go to the parade...and some people (not everyone) would go to the pub - its always a great day!

Answer 4

We don't refer to it as 'Pattie's Day', it's called Paddy's day here. In Ireland the letters D and T are pronounced differently to in the US. ;-)

There will be parades in many major towns, and some places have already celebrated it because this year it falls on Holy Week which precedes Easter, so heavy drinking is a bit of a no-no in some places.

I'll be going out on the night, that's what I'm planning anyway. Probably with my g*y friends to a g*y bar. Oh, I live in the west of Ireland, by the way.

Answer 15

Get outta Dublin and get drunk for the whole weekend, it really is a magical time.

Answer 16

be happy ive a day off that i dont care about anyway, and avoid going out so i dont have to put up with americans everywhere claiming they're irish when clearly they couldnt point to ireland on a map

Answer 17

never heard it called St Patties before, Pattie is a woman's name over here and a type of food in England.  We call it St Paddy's day.

I'm going in to the city centre on Saturday for a few drinks with the girls, on Monday itself I might just go to the local after watching the parade.  There is a fun fair near where I work so might go there too if the weather improves.

Answer 18

some people go on a mad bender in the city men ill stay local want to avoid the loud Americans dressed head to toe in green saying they Irish cause their great great grandad born in mayo spare me the torture

Answer 19

We have parades in every town, usually the pubs do a roaring trade, there's the odd ceili (big Irish dancing session) on, and thats about it. The Americans have gone overkill on the whole St.Patricks day thing.

Oh on the risk of sounding patronising *St. Paddy's not Patties
