And to my family in Kilkenny, Kerry, all over the UK and other parts of the world. We have a big parade here in Birmingham today which I believe is one of the biggest in the world. Much fun to be had.

My Irish family are in County Tyrone, County Down mainly. Quite a lot live in the Philadelphia area.

Every year my Mum used to receive little boxes of Irish Shamrock in the post from all her siblings and she used to get so homesick. That tradition has stopped now since she passed away.

My Dad died 17 years ago today so a very slight tinge of sadness but some great memories. ☘️☘️☘️
