Irish all ways
ABC News Photo Illustration
(of what they think Ireland is about)
Since so many people celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in one way or another, articles like this pop up in the media to share in the frivolity.
The final thing on the list…
More Guinness Is Sold in Nigeria Than in Ireland
That’s right: Ireland is the third largest market for Guinness. Nigeria is at second, and the U.K. is the first.Â
Look who else is in on the celebration (thanks to an Irish teenager from County Limerick).
Nice. Shows the roots of the Irish run deeper than what meets the eye. AND…..unlike so many other illustrations of the day (including ABC’s up above), it shows the true three-leaf shamrock. St. Patrick used it to teach Christianity to the pagans, teaching the Trinity with the simple shamrock.
The Lorica of St. Patrick, one of my favorites, covers it all.
