Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Happy St. Pat's and rest in peace oh Great Man.

from today's Glasgow Herald, the Big Yin will probably be the only one who gets this :(

"Away ahead of us
A Celtic fan, discussing Jimmy Johnstone's funeral cortege, wrote on a fans' website: "Have to disagree on the timings and route. I think that Jimmy will know exactly what we are expecting and instead he will, just as he leaves Uddingston, do a quick jink with his left shoulder and go through Coatbridge, Gartcosh and back down through Bargeddie.
"By the time we have worked out what is going on and are heading to intercept the cortege, he will have doubled back through Mount Vernon and with tyres screeching and rubber burning, he will stop all of a sudden in London Road... allowing us all to go flying by him.
"Then, when we've all ended up looking like idiots, he will stroll gently by us just so as he can have a quick birl round Bridgeton, the Barras and the Gallowgate, before making his final thrust through our, by now, totally confused ranks, back up to Celtic Park where he will sedately but triumphantly await our breathless but belated arrival."
"And when you start to think about death, you start to think about what's after it. And then you start hoping there is a God. For me, it's a frightening thought to go nowhere".

St Paddy's night. My great grandfather was, apparently, a p1ssed-up Oirish geezer who'd stop at nothing to secure his next pint. My missus is keen to point out the similarities. :innocent: :P :innocent:

It's in the blood. Not my fault. :lol:

Spent last night in a bar drinking Guinness with some friends from work, ignoring the drunk fake-Irish people. Turned out to be a rather good evening.

Oaaarrrrhhhhh.....

FvOk! Guinness is good for you?

I thought so last night too, but this late afternoon I'm going to review my assumptions :urff:

Or maybe it's the whiskey... maybe both...

What Is CPR?
The letters in CPR stand for cardiopulmonary resuscitation, a combination of rescue breathing (mouth-to-mouth resuscitation) and chest compressions.
you have to take it ever two years to get recertified here might be different elsewhere.

Random!

Sat in a quiet pub in the end, with no green, no silly hat, no stupid accent, and jsut a single whiskey as a nod to the event - nothing more. I'm not Irish, no-one in my family is, there's no Irish blood in my ancestry. Why bother?

Good night, though.
