    Looks like y'all had fun. I can't believe you didn't win, but at least you had a good time.

    I went up to London on Saturday (St. Patrick's Day) but you would not have known that it was other than just an ordinary day - I saw nothing there that told the world that it was St. Paddy's day.

    A few days ago, I posted another thread about the contest. A local ratio station, Rock 103, hosted Show Us Your Shamrock at TJ Mulligan's.

    When I was in London on Tuesday I saw advertisements and road closure notices for a big St. Patrick's Day parade in London to be held today (Sunday). Looking at X-markers St. Pats pics tonight from all over the world, I'm wondering whether any of our English members made it to the parade in London.
    Yes Alex, I did hear a brief mention of that parade on the Sunday morning radio news, but I saw nothing about it whilst in London the previous day. I suppose it was held on the day following St Patrick's Day because it was less likely to cause even worse traffic chaos on a Sunday! Admittedly, I did not go into the West End (Central zones) of London except for passing beneath it on the Underground, but I'd still have expected to have seen some folks somewhere a wearin' o' The Green, being inebriated, or at least sporting springs of Shamrock in their buttonholes!

    Ah! Thanks for the explanation Dirka. I'm afraid I have time these days only to Lucky Dip our threads. I KNOW I must be missing so much, but it's that or no 'X Marks' at all for me - and that, obviously, would be unthinkable!

    Hamish - a question

    I have time these days only to Lucky Dip our threads.
    What does "Lucky Dip" mean? An ignorant American - as is often the case, I'm afraid.
