John Kloehr Posted March 12, 2025 Posted March 12, 2025 Just now, Alpo said: I don't believe it. "A non-venomous snake"? In Australia??? Yeah, right. Non-venomous could still mean poisonous. They are not the same thing but both can hurt you. And considering what I might have over a toilet bowl, I would not consider a bite from even a non-venomous and nonpoisonous critter a welcome interruption to urgent personal business. 1 1 2 Quote

Buckshot Bear Posted March 16, 2025 Author Posted March 16, 2025 St Patrick’s Day St Patrick’s Day has always been the day for the Irish in Australia. On 17 March 1795 there were rowdy festivities among the Irish convicts, and the cells were filled with prisoners. Later the occasion gained in respectability, marked by formal dinners attended by the colonial elite, many with no Irish connections. By the early 20th century, parades were held in capital cities and rural centres. These were demonstrations of connections with an Irish Catholic past, or support for Irish political causes. Today, St Patrick’s Day in Australia has evolved into a fun day marked by revelry, green beer and comical hats. On that day, some say that there are only two kinds of people — those who are Irish, and those who wish they were. Image: St Patrick’s Day Melbourne, 1920 4 1 Quote
