Looking Ahead to St. Patrick's Day 2017


John Relihan of Duagh and Holy Smoke, Cork has been to London to prepare for another big street party to mark the saint's day.



This is Seán Spicer, the U.S. Trump administration Press Secretary (he of the alternative facts fame) who is, no doubt, preparing to celebrate as well. The CNN photo from 2016 shows Sean, whose emigrant ancestors came from Co. Clare, sporting his rather unusual St. Patrick's Day attire.

Then and Now....       a loss for design



This is how a post box used to look.

Post Boxes

The old British post boxes are so much more photogenic the An Post ones of today. I'm so glad they left them behind.




This is Listowel's example at the corner of The Square.



In Dublin they are painting them red for the commemorations of 1916.
