Time for a #CupOfTeaSocial #QuizQuestion. It's still just about #StPatricksDay somewhere in the world so raise a glass of the black stuff of your choice and ponder this.
St Patrick is believed by most to be buried somewhere in Downpatrick in County Down, Ireland. However, some people think he's buried in Great Britain. Where?
As ever, if you enjoy the daily(ish) #trivia #quiz then I'd appreciate a #boost so that other people can discover it and join in.
Happy St.Patrick's day! Gwen is ready to party!

Here in the Bay State, #SaintPatrick'ss Day is a state holiday
In March 1776 the Revolutionaries moved cannon captured at Ticonderoga to Dorchester Heights overlooking Boston & fortified positions there. Faced with a hopeless situation, the British abandoned the city on March 17.

In 1901, #Boston officially celebrated #EvacuationDay, thus commemorating Washington's 1st victory in the Revolution—& #StPatrick's Day
(I saw what U did there)

We have our own #StPatrick in the #LocalHistory group. Patrick Darby, a longstanding member, has transcribed & translated the #Dulwich manorial court rolls. A huge project and a wonderful resource for historians: https://www.dulwichsociety.com/local-history/the-dulwich-estate-court-rolls-1333-to-1880

St. Patrick's Day is about more than green booze, and we have the historian to prove it
What if, we'd went(sic) with, Hydrogen and not hydrocarbon? Lighter than air would leave a lot of acreage the autocar has stolen from our vineyards. On the other hand, we'd see some pretty fucked-up balloon sky raging and we'd most certainly have stratified stratospheres(sic). How are your skylanes today? #Friday #BurningTimes #Thoughts #StPatrick #KeepItLit #Ireland @BernardoKastrup

It's St. Patrick’s Day today.
Over the years, the religious holiday commemorating the death of Saint Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, has metamorphosed into a day of celebrating Irish culture through parades, music, special foods, dances and a lot of green - the colour commonly associated with the saint.
Seven things you didn't know about the patron saint of Ireland

: I don’t feel certain that #StPatrick, born in 🏴 was actually a slave - is it possible that someone 🇮🇪 mis-translated the #Cymraeg for ‘slave’ [ caethwas ] with the Cymraeg for ‘farmhand’ [ gwas ] ?

This morning 1030, I met student friends from #Ukraine in #Bewley's in Grafton Street. There was quite a queue & I figured, oh yes, #StPatrick's weekend. But then I realised the upstairs was closed & asked about it.The very nice staff said they can't get enough staff to work in hospitality so are only serving on ground floor ¬ all of ground floor & the staff have to already live in Dublin because no flats to rent. #SadDay. More of #Ireland shooting selves & country in feet with #housing?
Tomorrow is St. Patrick's Day and also Friday.
Traditionally corned beef is eaten on St. Patrick's, but it's a sin for Catholics to eat meat on Friday during the season of Lent.
In my state of Massachusetts, as I understand it, all archbishops have granted dispensation - a free pass. Not true in Rhode Island.
So Catholics believe it's a sin to eat meat in Rhode Island on Friday During Lent.
Your g-d seems to have very strange rules.
#MikeBunn's photographic exhibition at the gallery at #FarmleighHouse in the #PhoenixPark is on until Sunday, March 19. Here, one visitor today is inspired to look up 19thc. American photographer #EdwardCurtis for a comparison of large format camera work (Bunn used Gandolfi 10x8 & Hahnemühle paper) as peacock looks on... #photography #StPatrick #peacocks

Is there an easily downloadable MAP for all the locations of events for the #Dublin St. Patrick's Festival ? #StPatrick I'm all over the website which, sadly is a bit of a search engine mess and full of gizmo with too much verbiage and not much user-friendliness. Trying to advise Ukainians, Libyan & Brazilian students I teach and the site isn't very local living or cosmopolitan friendly. Like where is ClarkeSquare? Not finable on google etc. https://stpatricksfestival.ie/plan-your-visit
I hear people are asking if its okay to eat corned beef on #StPatrick'sDay (17 March), which falls on a Friday in #Lent this year.
The answer is Yes – eating corned beef always counts as a penance!
I literally slept seven hours for the first time in years last night after I turned in my Urban Fantasy series, THE BLESSED & POSSESSED trilogy into Falstaff Books. That was five years of writing four books, multiple-multiple-multiple readings of translations of Bible, interviews, and toil.
Now to figure out the next 3-5 years with a higher output. And maybe sleep through winter.

In #Irish #Mistletoe #Folklore, a #Nephew of #StPatrick named #Moel had gotten lost in the woods. #Cold & #Hungry, Moel attempted to pick berries from the Mistletoe, but the #Plant kept the #Berries out of reach.
Incensed, Moel #Cursed the #Fruit to be a #Poison & the plant to find no purchase in the #Soil. Instead, the Mistletoe became a #Parasite, forced to rely on the #Charity of other #Plants.
