Happy St. Patrick's Day

We are reliably informed that today is St. Patrick's Day (as opposed to yesterday being Red Nose Day, which is in fact tomorrow). So, we wish you a HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY and offer you the opportunity to separate fact from fiction via National Geographic. We don't know where the parties are tonight but we're sure there will be a few. (If you're having one, let us know!)

Happy St. Patrick's Day

EIRE / WORLD
In the full knowledge that we have many readers in Ireland, we can but wish you all a Happy Day. We also have readers in the US, who are well-known to celebrate the day whatever their origins. Happy St. Pat's to you, too. In case we should unintentionally miss anyone else, we might as well make the whole thing universal: HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY, EVERYONE!
