Are you wearing green?

[LadyZen]

Happy St. Patrick's Day! I'm not wearing green, so I just pinched myself.

Are you wearing green?

[Trentz]

Not yet because I'm working, I will when I get back home. I used to have an Ireland rugby shirt years ago. Closest thing I have now is a Connor McGregor t shirt.

[LadyZen in reply to Trentz]

You're lucky you don't work with me. You'd get an air pinch from me. Not a real one though because I'd get in trouble with HR for that.

After just going down to my local cafe, poor gals serving away, some Orish line dancing festival about 70 yards away, corny 'music' blaring away, even got a free sausage roll out of it, as we compared Orish notes "only one day in the year!" "are those windows closed tight enough" then some customers came in with their Orish music blaring away on their mobile phones! I saw a couple of 'people' with their big Orish foam hats outside. I got home no Orish gear on except "TITANIC sure it was grand when it it left here so it was" tea-shirt but that was all Phew!🙄🤫🤭🤭

[Adlon57 in reply to Adlon57]

ps. I was born near Belfast, I am a RETIRED Irish genealogist/historical researcher, so one day in the year keeping my head down low🙄😎🤫🤔🤭🤭

[Isinatra in reply to Adlon57]

whew! What a grand day you had, Laddie. Me thinks you had the traditional Orish dish? 🍀

[Adlon57 in reply to Isinatra]

Garlic chicken🤔not exactly Orish?🤭

[Isinatra in reply to Adlon57]

lol Shame on you!

[Adlon57 in reply to Isinatra]

Distinctly low brow Orish, in this part of Norn Irelan🤭🤭

[Isinatra in reply to Adlon57]

But was it good? 😁

[Adlon57 in reply to Isinatra]

Corny as usual, the peach yoghurt with banana was a nice finish, am still very restricted by my 'diets'🙄 no Guinness black pint coolers!🙃

[Adlon57 in reply to Adlon57]

No I'm in the part of Norn Irelan where they celebrate a Dutch fella on a white horse [historically "dark"🤫] who won this great battle🙄 over their Orish counterparts on 12th July [historically "1st July🤭]🥱🥱🥱🙃🤭🤭 [St. Paddy's day definitely low brow🤫] 🙄🙄🙄

[Trentz in reply to LadyZen]

I've no idea what an air pinch is but it sounds like a good thing.

[LadyZen in reply to Trentz]

I meant pretend pinch. A real pinch at work would get me in trouble with HR.

[Trentz in reply to LadyZen]

A pinch is fine with me.I miss my grandparents on this day. My grandad used to sing "Danny boy" in gaelic.

[LadyZen in reply to Trentz]

I'm sorry to hear that. If it's any consolation, my grandmother came to me in a dream after she passed away. And ever since, I feel very confident that our grandparents are watching over us.

[Trentz in reply to LadyZen]

That's really lovely. Thank you.

[benmaise]

Yes, I am LadyZen. I'm wearing an emerald green jumper. My dad was Irish and he always celebrated St Patrick's day. I am going to a quiz night tonight in my green jumper.😄

[LadyZen in reply to benmaise]

Woohoo! You sound decked out and ready. I'm not even Irish, but I love having something to celebrate.

[Isinatra]

Ouch, Lady! My eyes are green so I don’t have to worry about it. 🟢🟢😁

[LadyZen in reply to Isinatra]

😆Hmmm... I don't know the exact rules to this. So I guess I can't argue. *Puts pinchers away.*

[Isinatra in reply to LadyZen]

lol….It’s fun to make your own rules. Besides…I’ve never seen a rule book about St. Paddy’s Day? 😁

[Boston001]

Ta, but not the traditional Kelly green, I don't own any of that

[LadyZen in reply to Boston001]

No pinch for you then!

[Nothing_but_books]

Naw, I'm sitting home alone so I'm not bothering.

But I'll be watching The Quiet Man tonight. Does that count? ☘️☘️☘️

[LadyZen in reply to Nothing_but_books]

Never heard of it so 🤏 pinch.

[Nothing_but_books in reply to LadyZen]

Ow.

[LadyZen in reply to Nothing_but_books]

😆

[Nothing_but_books in reply to LadyZen]

Really, I can't believe you've never heard of it. Best Saint Patrick's Day film ever.

youtube.com/watch?v=2kimSAy...(Not working as expected?)

[Roxylox in reply to Nothing_but_books]

Great film

[Nothing_but_books in reply to Roxylox]

I got to see it on the big screen last year. Wow!

[Roxylox in reply to Nothing_but_books]

That would be something else!

[Nothing_but_books in reply to Roxylox]

It was. I try to keep an eye on Fathom Events TCM showings. Every once in a while something wonderful shows up.

[LadyZen in reply to Nothing_but_books]

Yeah, that was a little before my time.

[Nothing_but_books in reply to LadyZen]

🤷‍♀️ That's okay. Anything in the new millennium is after my time.

Whadda you kids watch for a St. Patrick's day?

[LilyAnnepuppy in reply to Nothing_but_books]

My husband’s favorite movie.

[Nothing_but_books in reply to LilyAnnepuppy]

My kinda guy.

[LadyZen in reply to kenster1]

No pinch for you!

[Nothing_but_books in reply to kenster1]
