Jakes Pal 5,708 Posted March 17, 2015 Author Share Posted March 17, 2015 Sums them up perfectly.Brilliant. I am 1/4 Irish, my Granda was in the modern parlance Headhunted from H&W Belfast to Fairfields in Govan. I am more Irish than the vast majority of the Fhuds out celebrating today. Despite my family background, I still feel no great desire to celebrate the day of the Patron Saint of a foreghn country. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluedylan 11,555 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Bizarre really I live 12 miles from Belfast in a town of 80000 and all the schools are open,people going about their normal day to day lives and not one bit of paddywhackery,,having said that I have no problem with people wanting to celebrate it,just that it has been hijacked by republicans.

WATP-FOREVER 5,231 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Put it this way.. In a country surrounded by billions of fish.. they decide to rely on the potato. Idiots Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.We're busy and incredibly determined to give these tims the whole of Scotland.

Dutchy 1,200 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Why is there a Welsh Flag for Tartan Day? I think it might have something to do with Keltic roots, but I'm not sure. The Irish aren't kelts, but they like to portray themselves as so. Fact is, they stole the art and culture from Wales when they invaded them pre 10,000. I'm just waiting to see how many Rangers get blamed for any trouble that may start in Glasgow tonight after the folk(septic fans) that have been drinking all day react to home bound Gers fans.
