Notes on forum pic: 17th March is celebrated as St. Patrick's Day (Lá Fhéile Pádraig). The patron saint of Ireland, Patrick was born in Roman Britain in the fourth century A.D., was enslaved by Irish pirates as a teenger, and is known for his missionary work converting the Irish to Christianity. The day itself has taken on a wider cultural significance in addition to its religious meaning, and is celebrated in more countries than any other national festival. There has been criticism of Saint Patrick's Day celebrations for having become too commercialised and for fostering negative stereotypes of the Irish people. We think the naughty boy in this pic is likely to be Irish.
