the parades

14 gas Patrick's Day parades that would make you proud to be Irish today

All hail the Teresa Mannion float.

IT’S BEEN SOME day around the country.

And, as usual, the best craic to be had was with the parade floats. Like:

1. When this guy in Wexford had a political edge to his one man mission

2. When this village in Clare had this pair of entertainers as their FULL parade

Nothing but craic.

3. When the Limerick parade paid tribute to The Rubberbandits in the best way possible
