Paddy’s drinking with his buddy Shaun In fancy dress as a leprechaun To be part of the scene They wear emerald green and get bladdered before break of dawn! Old Paddy supped ten pints of brown ale And then drunk as a skunk, he turns pale He stumbles to the right And gets into a fight Now Paddy’s languishing in the jail! When sober he rings his wife Innis Says ‘Darling, I drank too much Guinness’ And I cannot dispute I got pissed as a newt I’m begging you for your forgiveness! (* the Gaelic name Innis means Island) 2/16/19

G'day Jan … I've known a few 'Paddys' Jan. You've described some of them well here. I did avoid them on St Pats though. They needed someone for bail - Lindsay
