    St Pat O?

    Surely the other side has him!

    I like the drink Shootodog, but I suspect I will get very unwell if I have one. I sounds like what we call a depth-charge over here. You put a shot of Drambuie into a beer and consume. Then - BAM!

    Do you colour the San Mig green on St Pat's day in the PI? :D

    i suppose when lucy's around :D

    it's called an irish car bomb.

    actually, any hard drink placed in a shot glass then dropped in beer is called a depth charge or a sub. some are nastier than others.

    will try that one tonight.

    actually st. patrick's day isn't big over here. blame it on the small irish community or not being colonised by the british...

    Nice name, but I wouldn't call it that in Belfast...

    I thought the Brit's did try for a short time.

    Anyway, the Irish would never colonise anyone, they'd just set up bars there...

    Happy Paddy's day everyone, I will be downing a few tonight, it's tradition and who am I to go against tradition:)

    Yes you are right, sometimes I do belong to the "Dark Side" but the force is strong and the beer is even stronger:D

    Best regards

    St. Pat

    All was well in Auckland until I tried Shootodog's damn drink :eek:

    I managed to haul my unwell butt to training the next day, but somehow the sticks sounded very loud during siniwali drills...

    Serious hangover on Saturday morning, but this made the workshop go really well as I could not be bothered doing all the fancy stuff, just got down to the nitty gritty and inflicted some serious pain:D

    You gotta love Paddy's day for bringing out the best in your fighters.

    Best regards

    Pat

    Mental note:

    Don't get Pat out drinking the night before training with him...
