Dont you just love how we celebrate EVERY Holiday?  We are all suddenly Irish on  St Patrick's day, put on a million shamrocks wearing 'Kiss Me I'm Irish' T Shirts and drink ourselves silly.

St Davids day, we all dig up a Welch ancestor, nick all the daffodils from the local cemetry, try to pronounce Dewi Sant... and drink copious amounts of beer.

When we start to run out of local saints, we find out an obscure celebration, like the Jorvic Viking Festival... always a good one to fill your helmet up to the brim and.. yep... drink ourselves silly.

Or how about hijacking a well known celebration like shrove tuesday?  Toss me one over love and letsh hab anuffa drinnnk.

There's Mardi Gras... Whoohoo!   Throw me some beads!!...  

And today?**  I will be honest and say I have NO idea why the 5th of May is important. (Does any one know the real answer?).

I think I will ponder that over a small margarita, Cheers! X

**It was the 5th when I wrote this, had problems with illegal letters???
