    You can have a guinness but only if you draw a leak in the head.

    3 Guinness down over lunch while watching the start of the racing. Now if that's not Irish I don't know what is.

    Willing to stand corrected but so far I make it 22 out of 32 counties represented.

    So, come on in:
    Armagh
    Carlow
    Donegal
    Kilkenny
    Laois
    Longford
    Louth
    Offaly
    Waterford
    Westmeath

    Can help you with Longford, few miles outside of Arva. Also Tipperary, Carrick-On-Suir.

    For a moment I thought you were Deano, claiming Kilkenny!

    Nope, on this occasion Tipperary and Carrick-on-Suir on behalf of Olympic Champion Thomas Kiely! On every other occasion it's Deano number 1.

    Played GAA in Carrick-On-Suir, many moons ago, had a couple of great days there and in Carrickbeg across the bridge in Waterford.

    There's a lot of Irish descent on this site :smiley:


    Irish blood, English heart, this I'm made of
    There is no one on earth I'm afraid of
    And no regime can buy or sell me

    I discovered recently that I'm 31% Irish. I hope that's enough to celebrate St Patrick's day.

    Good luck to everyone Irish or with Irish links celebrating. I'm sure a good time will be had.

    Still beats me why so many English people with no Irish links go out of their way to celebrate and promote St Patrick's Day and do sod all for St George's Day.

    That's my issue though - have a good time all.

    There is only one county in Ireland: Cork. The rest are regions of Cork.

    I didn't really need to know the beers were vegan.
