St Paddy's Day 2010 Part 2

The second part to St Patricks Day or 'The Official Day' in Australia took place on the Sunday, the parade was on in the morning and it was all good, no problem getting a good view.

The parade 'afters' took place in Hyde Park and it had a whole host of bars, music and various Irish stalls. It was a pretty well organised event and I was picked out of the crowd several times by people I know back in Ireland! We had an old asian woman beside us join in the festivities and do a jig!

Some eejit at the end climbed onto the roof of the stage and decided to do a strip, I wonder what happened to him? The police didn't look too impressed!

It's been so long since I had a decent Guinness I thought I was hallucinating!

No shortage of bars!

Eoin with the Jim Beam and Sprite ...Yum!

Not sure where we found these glasses!

St Paddy's Day 2010 Part 1

The first leg of St Patricks Day involved having to go to work :( ..

Managed to get out early, but Tina was lapping it up with her 5 star meal in the Opera House. We went out for a few and ventured into the Metro to see Tuams finest: 'The Saw Doctors'.

A good night, but you have to wonder when you see a queue down the road for the likes of Scruffy Murphys.
