St. Patrick's Day




As befits the denizens of Teach Takahashi-Gaynor we flew the flag on the 17th, organized Muroran's parade (participants: Cian and a Unionist snow shovel; route: around the house), and ate a shepherd's pie that would leave the cooks at Avoca weeping with envy.
Nobody got drunk, nor started any fights though Cian and myself did have a bit of an argument about who would eat the last slice of the pie.
