Hoorah the Paddies!!!
Today is the day that we remember our Irish ancestors and all the great things that they gave to our families. In my case, the Irish were the Morriseys from County Clare and the Cashes from County Cork. I never met any of them, but Mum and Dad have; that is they've met some of their cousins, not the original batch. Dad's lot (the Morriseys) came to Australia in the 1860's and Mum's in the early 1900's. I suspect that the warped sense of humour that Mum and Dad have came from their Irish ancestry.
Remember your Irish family, past and present, and raise a glass in their honour.
