A Bit o' Blarney

Happy St Patrick's Day to anyone who has the least little bit of Irish blood in them . Such a shame the rugby team lost to the Italians yesterday.
Now I know there is a global audience, I've included a link to "Danny Boy", perhaps the most famous Irish song which also includes lovely views, for those who are not so au fait with the Emerald Isle. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Jgma--0WYU
What I didn't know is that the song was actually written by an Englishman, 100 years ago today.
Sadly there was not a drop of whiskey in the house with which to honour St Pat, so Christian made do with scotch and me with cava. "Sláinte"!
