I know someone who lived in New York who said it was mad in that respect as well. Don't they dye the river green on St. Pat's day or something?

Yeah they do in Boston, and St Patricks parade has more people watching it that live in Ireland.
30 million people claim to be Irish, as a friend of mine said, I hope they all don't come home at once, the country will sink!LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.

There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!

Yeah and we need to stop emigrating, which I believe since 'the bust', the numbers are creeping back up again!
For a very small country, we certainly have made our mark on the world, and not always in a good way!LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.

Alas, it's the 'brain drain' caused by finances. It even happens over here: most of my friends have gone to live in London/surrounding areas as there are generally more career opportunities down there.Please call me 'Pickle'

In my '£100 grocery challenge' I spent anothe £20 today (on washing powder, dog food, tea, coffee and other non-perisable bits) so that £50 spent - think we should be fine as lots of meat in freezer, so fingers crossed.
Ran out of gas for cooker today - another £23 to find now - gggggggrrrrrrrrr it never stops!LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.
