St.Patricks day this year has been changed to today 15th March by the catholic church so that it does'nt coincide with Holy Monday (17th March for 2008). Although i dont think many will take heed of this change.

Bit mad as St. Patricks day is generally held on the 17th, but as this is the case Happy St.Patricks Day and careful on the Guiness.

Beware the "Ides of March"
happy St Patty's day to you!!! I heard a news report last week , before the date was changed to today. In Boston, there was an uproar about the catholics not being able to indulge in the Corned beef ritual. So, one fine Irish man said this," We were IRISH long before we were CATHOLIC." I loved it.

| Legend of Saint Patrick |
| Good St. Patrick travelled far, to teach God's Holy Word And when he came to Erin's sod, a wondrous thing occurred He plucked a shamrock from the earth and held it in His hand To symbolise the Trinity that all might understand The first leaf for the Father And the second for the Son The third leaf for the Holy Spirit All three of them in one. |
Kiss me I'm Irish! momz
