St Patrick's day was officially Saturday according to the Catholic Church, they fiddled it around so it wouldn't clash with holy week.

Also has anyone noticed that the marketing men at Guinness are trying to spin Paddy's day out into "St Patrick's Season".

I'll forgive them because they made some fucking great ads.

That Jonathan Glazer advert that Jason posted - the one with the horses...

Samir's favourite tv advert OF ALL TIME.

Fact.

The second one is even better, I think, although not a very good ad for Guinness or indeed any alcohol.
