happy st patrick's day

Thanks, Tara and Dinah.

Tomorrow I'll be seeing my first Gaelic Football match as our Cougars (Australian Football) take on the Irish Vancouver Harps at their own sport:

Gaelic Football originates in Ireland and is often described as a combination of soccer and rugby but predates both sports. In what has become a tradition, a team of the Irish Vancouver Harps will take on the Cougars, the local Vancouver Aussie rules club, in a keenly contested game of Gaelic rules football.

Wow I've never seen St Patricks Day cards before - what fun!

We don't celebrate it - the nearest you get here are a few people walking around with silly hats and a bit more Guinness being drunk than usual.

Hope you enjoy the game!
