Everyone's Irish on St Paddy's Day

St Patrick's Day is the perfect excuse for people to go out and start drinking at 11am in the morning. Oh, and to see the parade too...

Yes, I'm quite sure they wear something underneath those kilts. Temperatures were like -7 degrees. Anything sticking out (like one's fingers) would freeze!

Street paddlers sell parade favourites.

Enjoying the parade...

I learnt it the hard way: if a policeman says no, he means no... I'm lucky I didn't spend a night in a cell

And even the pets get into the spirit!
