Everyone's Irish on the 17th

Today is St Patrick's Day. As it says in the Guiness factory in Dublin, "everyone's Irish on March 17th." But today is also a cool birthday day. Today three people who are very cool share a birthday. First is a football player I have a serious inexplicable obsession with. I just love the guy. Happy Birthday Steven Pienaar. Second is an all round footballing legend. An absolute hero of a man. Happy Birthday Pat Rice.
And finally an even more special birthday. HQ has been filled with cards for this person. Today is my mum's birthday. So lots of birthday love to Sports Wall's own superheroine.
Three extra reasons to celebrate today. Enjoy St Patrick's day sensibly everyone.
