Since the 17th Century the Irish have celebrated a religious feast day in commemoration of their patron saint on the 17th March every year.
I went to my local town's parade this afternoon which was well attended despite the rain.
Dancing to traditional music was fun to watch.
Live entertainment in the supermarket made a pleasant change.
Last year everyone enjoyed the parade in the sunshine.
Do let me know if you've enjoyed this little snapshot of our special day in the Emerald Isle.
Have a great weekend.
