Happy NOT St Patricks Day

I knew the Pope had decided that St Patricks Day was going to be 15 March this year and thank you for some people for correcting me when I sent out a text today. And I am glad the Pope has taken his valuable time to make such an important decision and when he decides that Christmas will be on 23 December instead I will still celebrate it on 25 December.

A date is still a date and Jack and I have just come in and opened up a parcel from my Mum with a green bell hat, two rosettes and a t-shirt saying The Leprechaun made me do it! and I have put the Corrs on (ok that won't last long, they are already annoying me) but when Jack finishes his homework I shall be teaching him some bad Irish dancing.

So the parades were on Saturday, the day was the 15 (according to the Pope) but today is still the 17 March and so I am celebrating St Patricks Day. So may the pot of gold be close to your heart from the traditionalist part of me. Aud
