With sunshine on your shoulders,
Shamrock at your feet,
A rainbow in your pocket,
And friendship ever sweet.

Happy St. Patrick's Day to all my friends at IHD....

Love...

May the road rise to meet your feet,
May the wind be always at your back
And may you be half an hour in heaven before the devil knows you're dead.

Happy St Patricks Day 

Amen to that, Henry!...

And as you slide down the bannister of life, may the splinters never be pointing in the wrong direction!!!!.....

Love to all...

Any Saint's Day that involves a P(ee) is tops in my books and of course the beer guarantees much of the yellow stuff too.

To quote one of my very distant, but definitely NOT Irish cousins.....

"We have always found the Irish a bit odd. They refuse to be English."

- Winston Churchill

Can you guess which side of the family had the most dominant genes?   ;D

KitKatz... I dread to think, I really do!... I'm off to bite my nails... Before taking them out of the floorboards!... :rofl;

Love to all...

Very sweet, Henry.

Another Irish term I've learned as I'm headed to one tonight.....Hooley - wild Irish party or drunken brawl.  I might be the only sober Irishwoman there!

Well, Darthie, I celebrated the big day at our clubhouse with the American Irish dinner, Corned Beef and Cabbage, and then again on the 17th watching Bobby Flay, on "Bobby Flay's Ireland". Great views of the country and the cities. Wish I could remember their names. Oh well, old age ya know.

You take me back to a happier, simpler, time Henry. With a name like Snicklesnorter, I presume the ancestors were from Dublin. It's certainly not a moniker I've come across in the Kingdom.

To be sure, to be sure, ‘tis most perceptive of you Galvo. ‘Tis a wonder that a man of such great intellect as your good self is not running this country. ‘Twould be the better for it, I have no doubt. Now I have something to tell you that must remain in strictest confidence until it is time to reveal it to the rest of the world.

Snicklesnorter, (or O’Snicklesnorter as it was back then,) was the name assumed by Brian Boru, the last High King of Ireland, when, contrary to popular belief, rather than being killed at the battle of Clontarf, he escaped and fled to nearby Dublin. With the great wisdom that only a high king such as himself could  have, he chose the name O’Snicklesnorter to remain incognito, a strategy whose success is self evident.

Throughout many generations, we have maintained this subterfuge, in the certain knowledge that the time will arrive when all can be revealed.

In more recent times, we became just plain Snicklesnorters, when Great Uncle Seamus, after an evening of serious imbibing, (as is the birthright and duty of every Irishman,) dropped the “o’ “while walking home from O’leary’s Pub. In spite of he and and his drinking companions searching the roadway for an hour, they never did find it. We have been Snicklesnorters ever since.

Now, as a great man such as yourself would well understand, I have been planning all of my life to reveal the truth to the world and to resume my rightful place as High King of Ireland. I feel that time is near.
(Not a word of this to anyone, mind.)
 
In the mean time (and only in private, mind) feel free to address me as Your Majesty.


And people wonder why the Irish are said to be as daft as a brush!!!!!.... :rofl;

Love you, Henry... We share the same, somewhat warped sense of humour!!!....

Love...

Darth....
