h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I have, as far as I know, absolutely no connection with Ireland, however, in the spirit of international co-operation I am happy to indulge in a or two chased by some good Irish Whiskey. BTW, I believe, and I'm open to correction, that like St. P himself, stout is of English origin.

|_b Cheers

I do believe a of the black smooth stuff would go down nicely.

Stout English? Not sure on that one, I know Guiness was invented by accident though. *frowns in deep thought while watching the beauty of the pint being poured* Nope, don't know.

Happy St. Patricks Day everyone!

A little illumination on the origin of Stout may be found at:

However, see the discussion for an alternative history.

Can I have a C|_| of your finest dry Irish stout. No fancy things drawn in the top either, keep them for the tourists

One sans shamrock

Might I have a pint of your finest stout avec shamrock? I like to keep my hand in trying to keep the shamrock all the way to the bottom of the glass

No I'll just put a smily face, similar to in the top of mine if I want to do that.

Are you serving food in here today?

One avec shamrock (After all, the customer is always right ).
Food can be found at:

And I think I'll have one for myself (sans) .

It's good to know that food can be found here as well

*Phil tries to find a seat*

There's plenty of seats around Phil, things seem a little slow in here today. I think some of the regulars must be off celebrating St Patrick's Day IRL. In the meantime I'll just comfort myself with another virtual .

Just heading out for RL celebratrations. A of the usual with a |_| chaser.

That's good, I'll take this one by the bar. Nice to see you've put coat and bag hooks here as well.

Can you pass another of those (sans) over. Any other recomendations for this day when everyone has some Irish ancestry (Yep even I can claim some )

A |_| of the Millennium blend Black Bush. Thsi is the day I've been saving mine for.

with a |_| chaser for DD and a for Phil. DD, I think the recommendations are your area Enjoy the RL celebs.

Might I not join in a of cheer. And would someone be so kind as to point out Løønytünes should he come by? I love a man with an accent.

A for you my Lady, and if I see Løønytünes I will be sure to mention your interest

Thank-you kindly, sir. I will sit and enjoy this while waiting for my post in another forum to load. Beastly slow this morning.

It is a perfect St. Patrick's Day here in Boston (we also call "Evacuation Day" and that has nothing to do with the ridding of snakes). It is raining/sleeting/snowing. All the better to spend the day...evening...next morning...enjoying a bit of green beer.

A litte overcast in this aprt of Ireland, but what did you expect, why else would the Roman's not invade Hibernia.

Overcast here in England too, but that didn't stop them. Think I'll keep my beer beer colour, I'm a bit of a traditionalist when it comes to that sort of thing. The fewer additives the better, with the odd exception. IMHO green is reserved for creme de menthe and chatreuse

and veils.
