St. Patrick's Day in France

As most of you know, Saint Patrick was the patron saint of Ireland. On March 17th it is his feast day to celebrate the arrival of Christianity in Ireland and the heritage of the Irish. In England it's mostly seen as an excuse to get drunk, and apparently it's the same in France! 

Our local bar/pub is called Finn Kelly's and it's an Irish pub, so of course they had a special event on to celebrate and that's where we spent our Saint Patrick's day this year. A lot of my assistant friends were out to celebrate the occasion; most of us wore something green and we were all given hats at the bar. It was quite a fun night, but because it was a Monday this year we didn't get that drunk. The bar closed at 12am what with it being a Monday so we all got ushered out, but it was still a nice night!

Here's some pictures of the evening for you:
