aridion Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 La Fheile Padraig. Patrick was actually from Wales. He was brought over to Ireland by an Irish pirate/slave merchant called Niall of the Nine Hostages.Trade in people was quite common in many parts of Europe then.

IanForbes Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Ian, for the record, only aussies can call the English pommies and get away with it. Anyone else spells cringeworthy. I know that. My first wife, and mother of my 2 kids, was an aussie and she always called the Brits "pommie bastids". I think some of it goes back to the days of Gallipoli when the British generals treated the Aussie soldiers like canon fodder. The British generals weren't much better in the Second World War, either. But, in any case, today it's mostly just in fun. There has always been an intense rivalry between Australia and Briton... and much more so than between Canada and the Brits. Canadians are treated more like Americans by the Brits... even though we belong to the British Commonwealth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patsycat Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I seem to have come home with one of those horrible Guinness hats. I had a great evening with my friends here in Geneva, but I do have a bit of a sore head. I shall have to go back to the bar because I seem to have left without paying my bill... Came home with the same amount of cash I went out with. OOPS!! (minus the taxi fare). Met a whole lot of people with Irish blood in them. From Pennsylvania to Manchester...

IanForbes Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 (edited) I seem to have come home with one of those horrible Guinness hats.

Came home with the same amount of cash I went out with. OOPS!! (minus the taxi fare). Met a whole lot of people with Irish blood in them. From Pennsylvania to Manchester... That reminds me of the story where Paddy was bragging about a certain Irish pub where you could drink all night for free and then go home with one of the patrons and have unbelievable sex all night long. His mate, O'Reilly, replied "Did that happen to you, Paddy?" Paddy answered back... "No, but it happened to me sister."

oldgent Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 its a sad world now we have to be very carefull what we say now. bring back the old paddy jokes. here is one i heard yesterday . paddy and mick were out in one of these countries where they have canabals and they were captured by the canabals, the chief man said that they were going to kill them and use their skin to make canoes, and he granted them a last wish ,mick requested a last meal and a go at a lady , they asked paddy what he wanted and he replied i want a fork. the chief was stunned by this and he asked paddy why he wanted a fork, on getting the fork paddy proceeded to stab himself and shouting out loud your not going to make a canoe out of me. and cheers Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patsycat Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 The fact that i had an argument with a Mancunian over the fact that elephants have feet and not paws just added to the whole evening. The bill was paid by a friend who is richer than me, I owe him lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSingh Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Wasn't St. Patrick English? Is it possible to tell the difference between a drunken Irishman and a drunken Pommie? Why would a Canadian refer to an Englishman as a Pommie ?? Paddy's an Englishman anyway, he was captured by the Irish as a Kid & was a Slave in Ireland, nice.. & it's only a great day for Gunness anyway, there the one's who profit from it the most & it's generally celebrated by more Englishmen than who celebrate St Andrew's day, which i've always thought of as very strange & p*ss poor actually.. I was in an Irish Gaff that actually ran out of Guinnness last night would you believe & then tried to push us towards the Kilkenny, which was double the price coincidently enough...
