Juat wondered who has Irish blood in them. So far I have not found a single drop in my family. My daughter went off to school in a green T-shirt in honour of the day and her only claim to it is that her father is Icelandic and there is supposed to be a splash of Irish slave-blood running in the veins of her compatriates.
Anyhow, Happy St Patrick's Day to all!
