Last night was the launch party of the St Patrick’s Festival at The Irish Centre, and what a grand affair it was. All the bestest people were there, like current Birmingham Rose of Tralee Anna Mullins:
Irish Minister for Integration and Community John Curran:
John says ‘there’s never been a better time to visit Ireland.’ He’s not wrong. Even the top man himself, Oh Glorious St Patrick was there.
Vince Thompson was there, photographing all the dignitary.
Vince gave me some photography tips, telling me to ‘fill the frame’. So I filled the frame with the Holy Show Band
We also enjoyed some Irish dancing from pupils of St Paul’s Girls’ School and St Thomas Aquinas, and some lovely Irish stew.
Whilst St Patrick was busy nomming, Douglas took the opportunity to try on his hat.
It was a great start to the festivities and I can’t wait for the big parade tomorrow!
