Which means a large amount of a certain black stuff will be drunk.

We all knew someone who was partial to a drop or 2.

So on this day, St Patricks day.

Cheers Paul, Mr Burly Hurley.

Anyway what makes paddies day so special?

No other day gets so much hype, is it just about beer?
 
I'm in Liverpool and the city is buzzing for Paddy's day. Weird.
 
but it's tomorrow mate, maybe they all got it wrong same as me, or they are just making a weekend of it.
Nah they know it's tomorrow. They're all talking about it though and explaining how it's such a great day because of the Irish connection to Liverpool.

Yawn

They invented a beer that is also a food, so you can go on the piss all weekend without needing to eat.

They also had the good sense to have Paddy’s day coincide with the Cheltenham festival, so any Oirish winners can be celebrated with extra gusto.
 
There used to be a big parade through Prestwich and into town via Cheetham Hill in Manchester for Paddy’s Day. Not sure if they still do it.

Quite surreal watching literally thousands of Irish people on floats celebrate through the ethnic ghetto that is Cheetham Hill.
