It the cities and towns it was quite animated with the parades but in villages like this one it was quite sleepy. St Patrick's Day was here and in a quiet place like this you could plan the perfect crime... or the perfect date.
My girlfriend and I both had green eyes so we were immune to the pinch. We didn't wear anything green, just something warm. We went for a walk and noticed it was very quiet, so we walked and danced on the roads, sneaking in a kiss or two.
The only busy part of the village was the pub I suppose. Neither of us drank but we did go to a place. A quiet café which was serving breakfasts all day. We got some lovely crispy bacon, fried eggs and sausages in, which kept us going on our date.
We went for a walk in the woods and skipped in a carefree way. It rained for a little bit so we stayed under the forest canopy and in the snakeless grass.
When it stopped raining a beautiful rainbow appeared. Our house was at the end of it. We took this as a sign to head home, so we did. There was a parade on TV but we opted to watch Father Ted on DVD instead.
