St Patrick's Day, are you celebrating

Options
Good morning. Anyone celebrating with a party etc. we went to SIL last night for an Irish themed dinner party in honour of our son in law, he is half Irish. The hostess cooked an amazing meal and we all paid £10 per head, some paid more, for the pleasure of sitting and eating with good friends and family.

We raised £150 through simple kindness and hard work by the hostess. This has all been donated to the cancer fund to help with his cancer treatment

    Thank you Rachel. We have decided as friends and family to help raise money that we will continu to get together for a meal at one of our homes and people donate, 4th July BBQ will be fun as we hope for at least 50 maybe even 75 might come to that as it is already an annual celebration when we get together with families bringing friends etc.
