Stiff competition for worst outfit between the lad with the chain and terrible suit, and the lad(?) with the orange boots.
Yep, orange boots bloke is the clear winner. The gas thing is there was a point that that lad looked in the mirror and said “Nailed it!”….astonishingly….
Absolutely- bet he’s looking at that and thinking hmm….well at least Leo keeps the legs covered.
It’s obviously a reference to how poor Irish people were back then, about how they couldn’t afford trousers or shirts- with the orange boots being a nod towards our Protestant brethren in the DUP- or something.
17th March is St. Patricks Day?
Yes. But if it falls in mid week then it’s often held on the weekends before/after in places that don’t have a bank holiday for it. Is this what you were querying?
Yep
Paddy or Brigo.

As a girl, she gave away the household’s butter and bacon to hungry beggars and dogs, then miraculously replaced the food for her family. Later in life, she turned a wooden column into a living tree with one touch and hung her cloak on a sunbeam. #ibeliveher
It is good that the Taoiseach gives cultural support to the Irish in England.

ah no, he was from Glasgow
Time for my annual St Patrick’s day joke so
