Words of wisdom on St Patricks day

Happy St Patrick’s day all.

On this fine day, there is a song I’d like us all to remember – Seven deadly sins.  My favourite part of the song goes:

Some say that drinking’s a sin
But a gargle is fine now and then
For drinking has been in this world
For ever and ever amen

No if it wasn’t legal then the lawyers they would sue
And the prison would be full of folks who had a drink or two
And if they didn’t like it then away the girls would run
And if it wasn’t plenty the poor folk would get none

If you’re not sure, have a read over a few more of our posts on the issue(*, *, *).  Or for more advice from the Dubliners go here.

See you all next week!
